Instead, they are cousins - called Asian Lady Beetles and unlike the cheerful more red ladybugs, these pests bite and stink when squashed. <br /><br />I can't believe the size of that wasp/hornet nest at the neighbors and I would have had that removed by now - I don't even tolerate little wasp nests under the eaves. <br /><br />Yep, all too soon - all of the bugs will be gone and the snow will be here.

The nest is cool but I do suspect that is where the hornet that I stepped on came from.<br />HKH~ You are so right, I am a bit sad about them leaving!

Anyway,as I was walking into her office I noticed I had a lady bug on my arm!! What to do? The tree hugger in me would never kill a lady bug!! Luckily...she was a kind soul and offered to take the lady bug and let it live in her office on her plant/tree!! yeah for her! They are everywhere and Reagan is enjoying watching them when they walk on the outside of his car window! He likes that he can see their little bug feet holding onto the window!!kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02402011234832646020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-19300539009182423232009-10-22T07:42:47.477-04:002009-10-22T07:42:47.477-04:00Indiana farmers buy and release Lady Bugs this tim...Indiana farmers buy and release Lady Bugs this time of year in their fields, so in turn they are every where in Indiana.<br /><br />Your Hornets nest is cool, we have a couple also I always stop and check them out.Mark Pressleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08833937799719658726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-80384332698276441272009-10-22T00:18:09.503-04:002009-10-22T00:18:09.503-04:00I can hear and feel your frustration with these nu...I can hear and feel your frustration with these nuisances, yet at the end of your post I detect a certain sadness about them being gone once winter sets in. It is a bit like me looking forward to summer and then being disgusted when the first flies and mosquitos appear.A human kind of humanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12944399986334367708noreply@blogger.com
