Default Ladybugs

One last note to be silly... Profit from them

They seem to be a regular intruder each year in the late fall/early winter

for us.
Some years are worse than others. One year it continued through till

January and
we finally called an exterminator because the clicking of them beating

their little bodies
against the lights at night was driving us bonkers. Luckily we called an

honest one who
said "I can take your money, but they'll be back in two weeks, there's not

much I can
do about them." At least they're relatively harmless........ Now

that I think about it,
I've hardly seen any this year. Maybe the fact that the last of our 3

old cats died last
summer and we've repopulated with younger kitties has something to do with

that -
perhaps they're hunting them down for entertainment! I see them mostly

around
the windows and I know our window seals are not particularly tight - I

think all you
can do is just make sure you don't give them any holes to crawl in

through.

Good luck
Susan

Would anyone know why every winter I have ladybugs in my house, in

particular
in the bathroom? Even if I take some outside there are still more

everyday.
I don't know how they are getting in either but they all die eventually.
