It is told that the stinkbug was brought here from Asia.
The brown marmorated stink bug, an insect not previously seen on our continent, has apparently been accidentally introduced into eastern Pennsylvania. It was first collected in September of 1998 in Allentown, but probably arrived several years earlier. As of April 2008, Halyomorpha halys has been recorded from the following 34 counties:
Adams | Centre Chester Cumberland Dauphin Delaware Franklin Indiana Lackawanna | Lancaster Lebanon Lehigh Luzerne Mercer Mifflin Monroe Montgomery | Northampton |
