Why are they swarming my house?

I'm in Korea now and the woman in the cubicle next to me found a bug that she said was a stink bug (Korean: 노린재). When I looked it up on the internet it said it was a Brown Mamorated Stink Bug Halyomorphas halys. The article I found said they are in the US and like to crawl into houses where it is warm. --Gbleem 05:31, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Source of smell

This article says aldehydes are responsible for the odor, but the article for Pentatomidae, one of the families in the order Hemiptera, says that the smell is due to cyanide compounds. I have heard that it is caused by cyanide before, but can anyone confirm? --71.227.190.111 00:25, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
