Also, many mirids and lygaeids can emit smelly defensive chemicals as well (and lead people to call them “stink bugs”), which might cause a reaction in some people even if they weren’t feeding on mustards.

For the record, I was referring to the green bugs in the third pic (on the black carpet) as mirids. Those big green ones on the tire are clearly pentatomid stink bugs, I hadn’t seen that picture before.
