Parasitoid wasps, Spiders, wheelbugs and woodlice are predators that eat brown marmorated stink bugs. The pentatomid in question (Halyomorpha halys) has a natural predator in China, the parasitoid wasp scientifically name Trissolcus japonicus, whose importation scientists in the United States of America are weighing against the current monitoring of the efficaciousness of native parasitoid wasps in soybean fields being preyed upon by brown marmorated stink bugs in Virginia. Scientists hope that birds will become significant predators through the United States.

What are the predators of stink bugs?
Parasitic wasps, other predatory stink bugs, praying mantids, garden spiders and birds, assassin bugs, and ants are predators of stink bugs. These predators get beyond the foul smell and taste of stink bugs. They can be counted on to regard stink bugs as acceptable food sources.Specifically, parasitic wasps (of the Apocrita suborder of the Hymenoptera order) lay their eggs and feed off stink bugs. Such colonizing and parasitizing ultimately will kill the stink bug. The problem lies in the ability of the stink bug to do damage while it dies a slow, unpleasant death.Predatory stink bugs include the spined soldier bug (Podisus maculiventris) and the two spotted stink bug (Perillus bioculatus). They kill and feed on fellow, non predatory stink bugs. The term "non predatory" simply means that such stink bugs tend to look to plants as their main food sources.Praying mantids (of the family Mantidae), garden birds such as the house wren (Troglodytes aedon) and the Northern flicker (Colaptes auratus), assassin bugs (of the Reduviidae family), and ants (of the Formicidaefamily) are all dependable feeders of many stink bugs. But as is the case with other stink bug predators, they are not showing themselves to be enthusiastic about eating the non native brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys).The brown marmorated stink bug nevertheless is vulnerable to two viruses. It also is vulnerable to parasitic waspsthat are not native to the United States of America. So researchers and scientists are studying the possibility of introducing into the United States of America these effective biological controls of China and Japan.
