If a bug triggers the right number of hairs while walking in the trap, it will close and try to digest it. It might not be able to get as much nutrients out of an insect with a very hard shell but it will still kill it and get some energy from the insect, even a stinkbug! Hi Sheryl,

I also would like to know if a carnivorous plant will eat them ... or if stinkbugs are even attracted to the plants ... thanks in advance ....

If you have an infestation problem, then a few carnivorous plants aren't likely to be enough to solve it. I'd recommend a more definitive method for your problem.
