Stink Bugs Are Not On The List
Stink bugs were not included in the list, but according to a senior insect specialist at the Royal Horticultural Society, they may be added in the future if we do not act quickly enough. Andy Salisbury was the one who made the statement. When he spoke to the BBC News network in March 2021, he went into additional depth.
How To Keep Our Gardens Safe
He explained, “With gardens taking on a more important role in supporting well-being and the environment, it’s important that research into management and mitigation of them continues. And our rankings help inform this focus. It’s also imperative that we continue to anticipate future threats such as the marmorated stink bug to protect our gardens.”
