Interesting bit of news there Mike. I am acquainted with these Lady Bugs, after living in Arkansas for many years. The little buggers do stink. Especially if you mash them and they will fill your house in the wintertime. However I did not find them to be to much of a pest indoors. Occasionally one might fly around the table lamp like a moth. It is only a matter of time before they make the migration to WNC. :)

I usually have loads of ladybugs in my house in the winter. This year not so much. I think because of the warm spell we are having here.

They are entertaining until they fly into your cup of coffee.
