We’ve seen leaf footed bugs on veggies lately, especially tomatoes. These pests feed on ornamental and wild plants. They also fly, but are slow to move so they’re easy to grab and kill, if you don’t mind a little stink on the fingers.

We might try a little orange oil to see if it helps, and will continue to enjoy the rewarding crunch and squish audibles of manual control.
