Stink bugs are sometimes known as shield bugs because of the shape of their bodies, but this can be confusing because there are other insects that are known as shield bugs that are not stink bugs. Stink bugs can leave a nasty stain when they are squished; removal of this mark can be simple or a bit more difficult depending on the material the mark is on.
