I assume they are newly hatched ones from thousands of eggs. Anyway, they get hung up on trying to get through the glass to get outside and I put a dust pan behind them and the rubber lip on the dust pan causes them to drop into the dust pan. When I have rescued all of them on one pane of glass I open the door and pitch them outside. I used to buy them from places that sold them and other valuable insects and let them loose in my back yard hopeful that they will protect my plants. It always seemed like they took off and flew over to the neighbors.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-68291022791141155172011-03-09T15:26:14.414-05:002011-03-09T15:26:14.414-05:00I do love me some ladybugs....

They stink when you squish them and bite you when you try to be kind. My dearly departed Uncle Dick called them by a less "lady-like" name that begins with a B.."because real ladies wouldn't stink or bite!" <br /><br />I miss the brightly red ladybugs who still hide OUTSIDE near trees. These nasty things in my house, sometimes by the HUNDREDS and I am not exaggerating, are not welcomed.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003384586082557583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-16693206754612553692011-03-09T08:08:45.631-05:002011-03-09T08:08:45.631-05:00Lady bugs have wonderful meaning in China and we h...Lady bugs have wonderful meaning in China and we have always been fond of them since the days of "paperchasing" our sweet Madeleine!Jill from Killeny Glenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639521470702814007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-38376387240436784382011-03-09T04:45:09.980-05:002011-03-09T04:45:09.980-05:00I found one on my plants last year, but wasn't...I found one on my plants last year, but wasn't able to 'catch' her... with the camera, obviously.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186211344492845052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-89505823661289030072011-03-09T00:34:46.523-05:002011-03-09T00:34:46.523-05:00Great post!
