Is white-crossed seed bug dangerous?
The long bug does not bite or sting. They have a colorful appearance, used to warn other creatures: "I am poisonous, don't eat me!" Fortunately, the alert color and toxins are prepared for predators. People are only in contact with their body surfaces, only disgusted by the smell of the smelly liquid they secrete, and there is no risk of poisoning.
