shield bugs

I love all wildlife and seem to have an abundance of green shield bugs. Ive read that they drink sap from shrubs and trees but cant find a answer as to wether they can kill or cause serious damage. Id be really unhappy if I need to get rid of them. PS they wouldn't be killed just transfered . Thankyou

    We love Shield bugs and welcome them into our garden  - they're not a pest in the UK image

    They don't appear to do damage in my garden. They do like to sunbathe on my rhubarb leaves.
