Stink Bug Catastrophe

Anna decided she needed to eat a stink bug.  I noticed Anna had a strange look on her face and she was chewing something.  As I got closer, I could already smell what was in her mouth....a STINK BUG!  I raked it out with my finger and half its legs were missing, the other half were still kicking.  GROSS. 

I called Poison Control (again) and they informed me that stink bugs are not toxic, however the smelly stuff they emit may irritate Anna's mouth.  They recommended I give her some water to rinse her mouth out, but that she should be just fine.   Ewww.
