Lady Bugs

Ladybugs are unique beetles and arguably the cutest member of the Coccinellidae family. Although they’re cute, they won’t be once they invade your home in large numbers. They can grow up to half an inch with a red or orange body. Their wing covers feature small black spots. The rest of their body parts are black. Researchers have positively identified more than 5,000 ladybug species in the world. Roughly 450 ladybug species are native to the Northern American continent. Although most are benign, a few species are considered pests in our area. Still, these pests can be helpful because they’ll eliminate aphids, mites, mealybugs, and other pests.

Reasons Ladybugs Are Invading Your Home

Are you interested in finding out why ladybugs have decided to invade your home? Ladybugs fit into the overwintering pest category. Therefore, they want to enter residential structures and other buildings before the frigid temperatures arrive. The primary pest species in our area was introduced during the 20th century as a way to control and eliminate aphids. The ladybugs helped but they created additional problems because they survived the cold temperatures. They survived the cold temperatures by taking shelter on south-facing objects and walls.
