Today our garage was covered in ladybugs! Turns out they are Asian Ladybugs, sometimes called Trick or Treat Lady Beetles, and they were looking for a winter home.
We hadn't seen ladybugs swarm like this before, and from an article, I see that this variety is fairly new to the US, having entered around 1988. They are considered beneficial insects but if you have a door on the sunny side of the house, they will slip inside when they get a chance.
