How is this feeding routine for my Painted and Red Ear Sliders?

I'm talking about the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys) I have heard (& read) they are not poisonous. I know there are other types of stinkbugs that are.

In my experience with feeding my turtles dandelion leaves I have too not feed them for a few days until they are less picky and more hungry. I also have read online that leaves from plants that have already flowered are more bitter. I have also read that the flowers are healthy but my turtles will bite it and spit it out which causes a big mess.
 
I think that there are plenty of other insect species to use that are not only much more nutricious but completly safe as well. Its not worth using that insect kind.
