Berry Or Bug?!

Would anyone care for some delicious Black Raspberries, hmmm?!?!

The insects pictured below are Boxelder bugs.  They're harmless but a SUPER nuisance!  They cover the south side and rear of the house come Fall, looking for a place to over winter.  Seems they find holes and gaps in the clapboards and crawl on in.  Come spring they make their way out and recongregate, this time to mate.  The pics below show the various stages as they grow. 



These and the dreaded stink bugs will soon be converging on my house, UGH!
