Our natural-first approach to asian lady beetles in the Champlain Valley

Exclusion before fall migration is essential. We apply botanical repellents to exterior surfaces and seal entry points. Vacuum collection prevents odor and staining from crushing. We identify conditions common to farmhouses and customize every treatment to your property's specific needs.

Asian Lady Beetles questions from Champlain Valley residents

Asian lady beetles are related but more aggressive home invaders than native ladybugs. They have an M-shaped marking behind the head, bite occasionally, and produce a foul odor.

Lady beetles overwinter in wall voids and emerge on warm days seeking light and warmth. They're not breeding inside but coming from hidden spaces within the structure.

We use vacuum removal with proper disposal to avoid crushing beetles and releasing their defensive secretions. Exclusion prevents new beetles from entering.

Lady beetles don't damage structures but can stain surfaces with their secretions when crushed or disturbed. Large aggregations create cosmetic concerns and unpleasant odors.
