LADYBUG, LADYBUG, FLY AWAY HOME

The Fall invasion of ladybugs has begun. They came in on the bright sunny afternoon after I had picked my herbs. What a NUISANCE! Deck on the sunny side of our house was absolutely swarming with them. They manage to get in the house and while they hide in dark places, also are attracted to bright lights. My computer chair sets beneath the ceiling fan and light, so for the rest of the winter, I will be plagued by them dropping onto my head and neck. Sounds pretty awful when stopping to think about it. Yes, they can bite and when you swat 'em they stink! Why on earth did I ever think ladybugs were so cute???
