Most of the people want to get rid of lady bugs and they cannot tell the difference between Asian Beetle and Lady Bugs. Well, most of the time they are and most of the time they aren’t. The problem is due to the migration of Lady Bugs which are caused by the inhabitant species in your area. Main problem is due to the multicolored Asian lady beetle, government has imported at the beginning of 20th century to condense the populations of tree-killing aphids. Most of the people have false impression that lady bugs and Asian beetles are pests or one of them is a pest. Lady bugs and Asian beetles eat aphids. Some of the gardeners have bags of lady bugs to control the pests. Although you cannot ever get rid of lady bugs or Asian beetles but there are some things to do through which you can control their population indoor and outdoor.
Sealing of doors and window frames
The most common way of getting rid is to inspect your screen doors and window screens and screen in porches. There should be no crack in screen window or in screen doors or screen doors should be properly fit to frame. Other way is Door frames and windows frames some lady bugs are too inflexible that they don’t use to take an easy way indoors instead to get in through sides of your house.
Lining of landscape
Lining the immediate perimeter of your house with food grade diatomaceous earth will also get rid of lady bugs. It comes from the fossilized algae and refined for medical purpose and for pests control. It is microscopically, blade sharp composition which cut through the exoskeleton of the interfering insect and causes death by dehydration.
Usage of long lasting pesticide
The Ohio State University also discovers a quick and valuable method to control lady bug. It is a clever trick; in it you take a vacuum hose and stick nylon with a rubber band. Then all you have to do is to go around the house at a specific fruitful day for lady bugs and vacuum them up. They trapped in nylon and then remove, untie, throw or you can empty the nylon far from your house. This is the least economically critical and the most effective and easily used way to get rid of the lady bugs.
Killer and Control of Lady bugs
Since the population of Asian beetles start rising lots of companies have popped up claiming that they have the most effective way of controlling lady bugs. As we don’t know the results so I don’t recommend to purchase. There is no certain poison either to kill pests. Mostly a toxic chemical is used to drive the lady bugs out of the places where they are hiding. Again I have never tried so I will not recommend to do so. I will perhaps purchase a trap in this spring. If you want to try some then let me know I will use your testimonials to get rid of lady bugs.
