Ladybug infestations!

Yuck! Apparently my building gets infested every year with asian lady beetles and I just had the luck to be one of the rooms that got extra ladybugs... I sealed my window though so there aren't any more in here. But there were close to 100 of these fucks just flyin', chillin' in my room. The fuck? Good thing they aren't terrible insects. They just use homes for hibernation, don't reproduce indoors, don't bite, but they're just so annoying! I vacuumed them out though or else I would have gone crazy. Anyone here have any ladybugs invading homes? I never even knew this was a thing til they started invading me!

Yeah that's a pretty common thing in cold winter areas. Asian lady beetles.

Oh they bite and they fucking stink. If you squish them or they get mad, they'll spray a disgusting cloud of stench at you.
They're everywhere in Minnesota. I was doing some work on a roof and I got swarmed. Had to just let them bite me all the way down and all the way as I ran like Forest Fucking Gump.

ladybugs like to get drunk too, i always find them in my bathroom next to the listerine a few drops always end up on the bottle and they lick it up, so i started putting little puddles out on purpose, so the one that found it didn't move for an entire day thought he was dead but he started moving again

We had a huge ladybug problem around here a few years ago. I was siding a big old house deep in the forest and ever day around 3 or 4 a huge swarm of them would come out of the woods. It would look like a cloud coming out of the trees and they would cover the outside of the house. Probably tens of thousands of them. And we would be on a pick 35 fret off the ground and they would be swarming us and biting the shit outta us. It was horrible.
Now the stink bugs are everywhere around here and the ladybugs are pretty much gone. Someone told me they released a bunch of stink bugs to get rid of the ladybugs. I don't know if I fully believe that but it seems plausible.

I already got both. Luckily neither are really bad this year, but then again it's been pretty warm and they usually don't come in until the temperature starts to drop.
I like watching the ladybugs crawl around, the stink bugs I try to catch them in a bottle so that they can't whoosh by my face in the dark and spray stink when I accidentally touch them. Learned that technique from someone here.

do gecko's or something eat them? go buy a lizard and just let it chill in your windows with a water bowl, setup a webcam and stream it to youtube or something and make money, setup betting lines on how many bugs it will eat that day, you could start an entire empire

snakes actually do surprizingly well inside a home if you leave water bowls around, they will get up into your attic, between walls, all kinds of crazy places, then when they get thursty they seem to be able to find the spots that have water. all the pet snakes i ever had, we always caught them months later in the bathroom

nothing eats ladybugs, they are poisonous. if you throw a bunch into a spiderweb, the spider will spend all day cutting them loose.

Since I have no reason to doubt you (yet). That's a very interesting fact.
One cannot be upset with lady bug infestation, I imagine it feels fluffy.
A few years ago I went to a place that had a live butterfly exhibit , you could walk in and around a sizeable netted "cage" (similar to bio dome but with netting..). It was nice.

Not only do they bite and release a terrible stench if you smash them, but that scent attracts more. So, the more you kill, the worse your infestation will get.
