Does one human a year eat a pound of bugs?
People in America consume about 2 pounds (for us Brits 4.4 kilograms) of what is so called as "dirt" by the processing food industries. "dirt" can be anything that is not considered edible-actual dirt, bugs, insects, and rats even. There is a story from someone i know that told me that they worked in a company that made lemon pies. A rat got into one of the big tanks of lemon filling. He called his boss asking if he should remove the creature but his boss told him to leave it in because they were allowed to have 2 pounds of dirt a year. So that rat was ground up and mixed into the lemon pie filling..."very appetizing".

Well, don't squish them! It will result in a gagging stench. This is what you should do to kill them:
Have a spray bottle, water, and some dish washing detergent. (Such as; Dawn, Cascade, Finish, Ajax, Joy, etc...)
What you do is:
Get the spray bottle. About half of the bottle should be filled with water. Then get the dish washing detergent and squirt some of that in the water. You should put about 5-6 squirts in. After that is done, spray the solution onto the stink bug(s) a few times and the bug will stop moving and slowly die.
Another thing to do is flush them down the toilet when you find them. Just grab them gently with tissue and drop them in the toilet. That is better than other alternatives such as mashing them or releasing them. If you release them, they will come back. They are prolific breeders and have a life expectancy of 8 years. You do not want their scent on you, since some people are allergic to it, and the scent contains pheromones which can attract more.
