A few birds are known to eat them. In Britain the Great Tit (the Black-capped Chickadee of North America) has been seen to feed on them but few other animals will eat them in the usual sense of the word, However, many animals feed on them as parasites. Several Tachinid flies lay their eggs on stinkbugs. The eggs hatch and the larva (maggot) burrows into the stinkbug and feeds on it.. There are too many to name but, for example, Subclytia rotundiventris parasitises the bug Elasmucha grisea.
Tiny braconid wasps do a similar thing, and there are myrmarid worms and nematodes too. Against all these the stink glands are no defence.
