Red Cotton Stainer (Dysdercus cingulatus) is like the prettiest bug I came across though I don’t usually look for bugs 😅 Through to its name, these bugs suck the fluid from the soft seeds, cotton bolls in the process transmit cotton staining microorganisms causing discoloration of the cotton bolls, damaging the fibres and affecting the growth of cotton bolls.
