Default Ladybirds

Having my shower this morning and watching a ladybird walking on the wall
near the window thinking to myself don't fly into the shower spray but it
took off and landed on the window blind.
On looking closer I counted 7 ladybirds clambering over the window and
blind, some where red or yellow with up to 10 black spots, a few where
black with 4 red spots.
I have seen the odd one in the house before but not of this quantity, does
that mean we are going to have a plague of them this year?

Hi Bazza , Don't know much about ladybirds but this might
help you

All I know is they eat greenfly (good) and the little buggers bite (bad)
