What damage does a stink bug causes to the plants?

Stink bugs can cause damage to plants by piercing the plant tissue and sucking out the sap. This can lead to wilting, yellowing, and distortion of leaves, as well as stunted growth and reduced fruit or flower production. In severe infestations, stink bugs can cause significant damage to crops and ornamental plants. Additionally, stink bugs can introduce pathogens into plants through their feeding, leading to further damage and potential disease transmission.
