    I think Stink bugs stink when people or predators get close to them.And that is probably what allows them to stink, so i would not recommend getting close to a stink bug.

    I think stick bugs stick for defense against preditors. I looked at wonderopolis and I am right. The thing that makes them stink are the stink glands

    I think stink bugs stink because they have some poison or a acid in them so if something is close they will stink.

    I think stinkbugs stink for defense. I think predators that attack it would hate the stink.

    I think that stink bugs stink because they use it for defense against their predators. My guess is that they have acid inside them that they can release when a predator comes near them. I wonder if they stink when you kill them?

      The stink is produced from stink glands which are located on the underside of the body and between the first and second pair of legs.

    I think that stink bugs have a weird smell in them, and that in one part of the body they can release it.

    I think they have some type of infection in their body that trigers stink. That is my guess.

    I think stink bugs stink because they might have poison gas inside them. So when someone comes near the bug they let out a little of the gas. I wonder what it would smell like if a stink bug released its gas on you?

      I read that on the underside of the stink bug in between its first and second pair of legs. it has stink glands so when the stink bug feels threatened it will release a stinky odor to make its predator go away. They say it is similar to the skunks way of protection. Many people say it is a very strong version of cilantro used in italian cuisine.

    I think stink bugs stink because they eat something that smells bad. Maybe like a dead fish or something.

    I think stink bugs stink because they have the same gas that a skunk has. So when it gets scared it sprays gas like a skunk.

    I think stink bugs stink because they are tiny insects and if predators try to kill them or eat them, it stinks badly so the predator won't attack them. The stink will scare away the predator.

    I think stink bugs stink because they have gas in their bodies so when they want to they just let the gas out and it will stink. That might help them stay away from other animals who might want to hurt or kill them. I would not want to be a stink bug!!!!

    The stink bugs have glands under their first and second legs and that releases a really bad smell.

      My grandmother was 30 miles away from the terrible tornado and my cousins were too. Did you know that yesterday an elementary school got knocked down by the tornado and 24 third graders are under the school and have not been found!!! It's super scary. I 'm so happy they are ok. Do you have any relatives from the USA or in Oklahoma? Oklahoma is not that for from us. It's only an 8 hour car drive. Do you have any tornadoes in Spain?

      We kept our TV on the news all day and we turned it on this morning. I think the tornado knocked down two schools( pre-k to sixth), a theater and a hospital. They had to evacuate parts of Oklahoma. I have lots of family and friends in Oklahoma because of my dad. My grandparents live there and my cousins live in Arkansas where the tornado was heading. We still don't know if they are OK. What kind of disasters do you have in Spain?

      Europe, as a whole, doesn't experience such devastating natural disasters. We sometimes have floods, high winds and extreme snow... but nothing that compares to a tornado or hurricane...

      Here in the south of Spain, we have flash floods... when it rains, it rains hard... but in reality we cope very well. Malaga is a very sunny place... blue skies are the normal...!

      I hope everyone is coping... the news of the schools that were hit, is heartbreaking.

      Look forward to blogging this week... your last full week!!!

    Why do stink bugs stink? I think stink bugs stink from what they eat because stink bugs could eat all different kinds of food like oiuns that will make them stink or stink bugs stink because they get spraid by skunks a hole lot.

    Because the stink bugs have glands under there first and second legs that gives them bad smell.
