THE TRICKY SPECIES (November 5, 2008)

Stinkbugs treat cats, dogs, and people with equal disdain. Their trick works all around, or so they seem to believe. Of course, people are a bit trickier than other animals, and stinkbugs will eventually need to adjust to this new species by developing another trick or two. The way things look at the moment, however, the adjustment may well turn out to be unnecessary. And stinkbugs may keep treating cats and dogs with their customary disdain long after the tricky species has disappeared from the face of the earth.
