Recuperation journey: Stinky situation

Update: I picked up the paper cup last night and he was no longer moving ... he is outside back in nature now.

Earlier today I saw a stink bug walking across the floor. I wasn't happy to see him.

I knew I had to do something, but what? A three-ounce paper cup was handy so I popped it on top of him. He's trapped. 

Now what? I'm afraid to squish him, I've heard they stink!

I just read online that "When bothered or agitated stink bugs emit a foul odor that can be particularly offensive in large numbers." So I guess he doesn't have to be squished to stink.

My daughter said, "I guess that's where he lives now."
