Recently the redbanded stink bug, Piezodorus guildinii (Westwood), has become a major pest of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merrill, in Louisiana and has begun to infest soybeans throughout the Mid-South. Soybean industry and cooperative extension personnel have reported differential susceptibility between the southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula L., and redbanded stink bug treated with currently labeled insecticides in commercial production fields. To address their concern, we evaluated susceptibility of southern green stink bug and redbanded stink bug to insecticides in field and laboratory experiments. Insecticide field efficacy experiments during 5 years indicated control with pyrethroids was 94.4 ± 1.3% for southern green stink bug and 75.1 ± 1.9% for redbanded stink bug, with organophosphates, 89.8 ± 2.7% for southern green stink bug, and 84.8 ± 1.7% for redbanded stink bug, and with neonicotinoid insecticides, 78.0 ± 5.6 and 63.2 ± 6.0%, respectively.
