Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB) liquid in eye<\/h1>\n

There have been many reports related to the eye damages caused by Stink Bug. After coming across the actual problem myself, I made a small search and wanted to get information about this matter.<\/p>\n

As you all know, almost all beings in the nature, have their specific protective mechanisms again their enemies. Stink Bugs<\/strong> have their own protective mechanism too.  When it feels any danger or something attacks to it, it pours out specific liquid from its thorax, which has very annoying smell.<\/p>\n

Although, as experts say, it is not actually a strong “poison”, it can cause somehow undesirable problems if it drops directly into eyes. Several hours ago, I’ve got an information, that someone into my region become blind, because its liquid (I cant say surely if it was the Bug’s protective liquid, or if it was the “body” liquid, which was poured out after he pressed the bug and it was burst). In our country, he couldnt get a help, and then was sent to Germany, but unfortunately, they couldnt save him and become blind.<\/p>\n

However, that is very rare occasion and dont know why that happened. Many people have been “attacked” by bug, and many people got Bug’s liquid into their eyes, but all of those people just had their eyes swollen and burning, but dont becoming blind. Then I’ve met this article<\/a><\/strong>, saying that in rare cases, it may cause temporary<\/strong> blindness. So, if you had an accident with a bug and got a liquid into your eye, then do some measures.
\nI will just list some links, were people (who had experienced such accidents personally on themselves) talk about the facts and measurements:<\/p>\n
