[ENG-ESP] Curious (Nezara viridula) in house / Curioso (Nezara viridula) en casa

Greetings friends of #fascinatinginsects today I want to share with you these photos of a curious and nice green insect that I managed to see in the trees of my home, it was very curious because it was mounted on some leaves and it was almost impossible to visualize it because it was very similar to the leaf of the plant. I looked for my cell phone to take some pictures and it was still there in the same place, I didn't want to touch it because I don't know if it can be dangerous for my health.

It is a (Nezara viridula) or called "Green Bug" belongs to the Pentatomidae family and is considered a hemipteran insect, since it sucks sap from plants, hemolymph (insect blood) and animal blood. This insect species has a strong irritating odor that it releases from its body when it feels threatened or when it is crushed. This strong odor comes from glands called repugnatoria which are located in the mesothorax area near the area where the hind legs are located. It feeds mainly on plants and is considered a pest for crops, since it is responsible for damaging crops.

Saludos amigos de #fascinatinginsects hoy quiero compartir con ustedes estas fotos de un curioso y simpático insecto verde que logré ver en los árboles de mi casa, era muy curioso porque estaba montado sobre unas hojas y era casi imposible visualizarlo porque era muy parecido a la hoja de la planta. Busqué mi celular para tomar algunas fotos y seguía ahí en el mismo lugar, no quise tocarlo porque no sé si puede ser peligroso para mi salud.

Es una (Nezara viridula) o llamada "Chinche Verde" pertenece a la familia Pentatomidae y se considera un insecto hemíptero, ya que chupa savia de las plantas, hemolinfa (sangre de los insectos) y sangre de los animales. Esta especie de insecto tiene un fuerte olor irritante que desprende de su cuerpo cuando se siente amenazado o cuando es aplastado. Este fuerte olor proviene de unas glándulas llamadas repugnatorias que se encuentran en la zona del mesotórax, cerca de la zona donde se encuentran las patas traseras. Se alimenta principalmente de plantas y se considera una plaga para los cultivos, ya que es responsable de dañar las cosechas.

It is very important to differentiate between a bedbug and a chinch bug, the chinch bug that causes Chagas disease are small from 5 to 15 millimeters, their color is brown with black spots, usually it is better not to touch either of them, they are very small species but capable of doing a lot of damage. Nature is amazing and we must respect it.

Es muy importante diferenciar entre una chinche de cama y una chinche de campo, las chinches que causan la enfermedad de Chagas son pequeñas de 5 a 15 milímetros, su color es marrón con manchas negras, normalmente es mejor no tocar ninguna de las dos, son especies muy pequeñas pero capaces de hacer mucho daño. La naturaleza es increíble y debemos respetarla.
