What insect is this?

Dear Experts,



Lately, I've been noticing some insects in my home. On the second floor for the most part.



Here are some pictures of them:

They move slow around the room. Sometimes they fly. But for the most part, they just walk around. Rather slowly. Not like a swift housefly. I can snag them with a tissue pretty easily.


What kind of insects are these? How do I get rid of them?



Thanks a lot!

As others have said, it is a Western Conifer Seed Bug.

do you have any pine trees around?

Like you, they plague me at this time of year. I wish I knew how they get in the house but they sound like a B52 flying around, and they taste terrible. DAMHIK.
