Internal plant fluids is the prey of the chinch bug. The insect in question may be considered a serious pest of such grasses as centipede, St. Augustine, and zoysia because of the toxin which each sip inserts into plant tissues. The insect uses piercing/sipping mouthparts to break through a plant's exterior in order to wreak havoc on the interior life-sustaining juices.
