🚫 Suck plant sap, weakening stems and leaves
🦠 Transmit bacteria and viruses, causing diseases

💀 Can even kill plants in extreme cases
These insects, also known as Nezara Viridula, are masters of camouflage, blending with leaves and hiding in hard-to-reach places. Unfortunately, their damage is highly visible, making them a serious pest for gardeners.
