Tasty Coccinellidae

March 17, 2009

OK so we have a ladybug invasion in our home. At first I thought it was kinda neat, I mean who doesn't like ladybugs, but now it's just annoying! We can't figure out where they are coming in from but from what I read online they are trying to escape the cold weather. The thing that really bothers me about these little uninvited critters is that they are keeping warm in Penelope's room. Everyday I see about 5 new ones crawling around her window and just as many dead ones on the window sill. They must be starving to death. :) Or maybe Penelope is poking at them too hard. I tell her not to touch but she can't help herself. She even ate one the other day! YUCK! So now I'm going around picking them up and flushing them down the toilet. Sorry,but I am starting to become paranoid that they are going to crawl in Penelope's ear when she is sleeping. I know they eat spiders and are suppose to be good luck but they are becoming a pest. :p If anyone knows how to keep these bugs out of our house please let me know!

Penelope turned 13 months yesterday. Here's a pic I took of her, her hair is kinda outta control.
(Picture baby with outta control hair. :p)
