Hi, my wife was picking these stink bugs off the citrus and now has orange stained fingers. Even a week later they are strongly stained and nothing she has tried can wash it off. A bit like henna.
Can the dye in the bugs be isolated and used as a skin dye like henna?

We will try to locate information on the potential for skin dye from the excretion of the Bronze Orange Bug from Australia.
