Experts say now is the time of year when the insects that look like lady bugs come to the area.Those bugs are called Asian lady beetles and they often fly and land on sunny areas near homes in search of a place to live during the winter and then emerge in early spring. The beetles are not harmful to the environment; they actually eat pests like aphids in gardens, but once they gather around a home they can be extremely irritating.
The beetles can attract rodents and over time their outer shells crack and become airborne which has been known to cause asthma attacks.
According to experts, the best ways to keep them away are to use pesticides or seal any loose cracks in your home to prevent them from getting inside.
