Hurt Plant

As new forest shieldbug feeds on Apiaceae plants, it uses its piercing mouthparts to suck out plant fluids. This action primarily affects leaves, fruits, and seeds, leading to discolored patches and potentially causing wilting. The loss of vital nutrients and fluids can stunt growth and reduce the vigor of the host plant, impacting overall health and productivity.
