Remove unwanted ladybugs
and Asian ladybugs fast.
You may like ladybugs because of their beautiful colors.
Farmers love them because they eat potentially harmful
insects, like aphids, that would otherwise eat their plants.
Ladybugs will lay their eggs in these aphid and other plant-
eating colonies. When these larvae come out of the eggs,
they instantly begin to feed. Ladybugs live 3 to 6 weeks and
in this time frame they can eat as many as 5,000 aphids.
The problem with ladybugs is when they are in your home.
They may not harm you, but our experts will still get them
out fast.
How can you identify ladybugs?
You will know you see a ladybug based on their half-sphere, tiny, spotted, round or oval-
shaped domes. These insects also have short legs and antennae. Their spots and colors
can make them appealing to predators. However, they secrete a fluid from their joints
that gives them a foul taste. The next time an animal encounters this bug, they will
remember that it tastes awful. When threatened, ladybugs may play dead and secrete
their unpleasant substance for protection.
