Pest Library
Ladybug
Appearance
Round, with red or orange wings with dark spots.

Behavior
Ladybugs will occasionally enter homes to escape cold weather.

Habitat
Ladybugs eat a wide variety of pests and will be found wherever suitable prey is available.

Treatment
Because ladybugs are beneficial insects, prevention is preferable to extermination. Sealing cracks and holes and fitting screens over windows, vents, and turbines, and having a professional treat eaves on the west and south walls of the home will reduce the likelihood of ladybugs taking up residence in your home.
