Macro Monday – Green shield bug

Macro Monday again!

Today I’m going to show you a guest I had a few days ago on my balcony. It’s a beautiful colorful bug. For photographers it can be a beautiful catch, but no one wants it in the vegetable garden or in his house. Although it is an insect specific to large agricultural crops (wheat), towards the end of the agricultural season (September – October), due to lack of food, the green shield bugs migrated to urban areas, being a discomfort for the population. Even if it is harmless to humans, the unpleasant smell it emanates when crushed causes  repulsion. Once they get into the house, it’s very hard to control.Thank God it did not enter into my house.
