The white-margined burrower bug inflicts harm on Lamiaceae plants through its feeding activity. By sucking plant fluids, it weakens the host by depleting vital nutrients and water.

Peanut Burrower Bug

Peanut Burrower Bug

Peanut Burrower Bug adults and nymphs alike pierce peanut shells with their needle-like mouthpieces and drink the cell sap, making the peanuts unmarketable. This strong preference for eating peanuts, much to the detriment of us humans who also enjoy peanuts, gives the peanut burrower bug its name.

Pied shieldbug

Tritomegas bicolor, the pied shield bug, is a species of shield bug found in Europe. The adult is black and white and 5.5–7 mm (0.22–0.28 in) long. It is found across North Africa, Europe and Central Asia, although in the British Isles, it becomes rarer towards the north, and is absent from Scotland and Ireland. T. bicolor lives mainly on the ground, but is also visible on its host plants — chiefly Lamium (dead nettles) and Ballota nigra (black horehound).
