Found 1 of these buggers hanging out on my light today, a "boxelder bug".

Should I be worried? Anyway I crushed him! Poor Lil guy

After a quick Google, this is what Ive gathered.
Box Elder bugs may munch on the leaves. They came in for the winter, from a nearby Box Elder tree.
A foilar spray of dish soap (No dyes perfumes and not antibacterial) and water may help.

Final conclusion: They don't do a whole lot of damage. I would still kill on sight.
 
@Yeatster ..Only one I've noticed so far and no damage to plants.. nothing significant anyway hard to tell if it's from him or a Lil bit of wind burn, need to upgrade to an oscillating fan.

Can you show me?

I'd like to see your fan positioning also. If it's wind stress, we can sort that out easily

Yeah, an oscillating fan is a good tool.
