@lab_hacker: A simple way to identify real ladybugs

OGD :

Pretty sure lady bugs are extinct, haven’t seen one in many years, just the frickin Asian beetles that fly on you and bite you

🩹﹕𐔌・ᴡᴀᴡᴀ〃・꒱ 🪽 :

I just thought it was a ladybug pissing on me what

Annette Gordon :

found these on my front door the other day.

HeyRed🌺 :

Most parts of Canada will never see a red ladybug like the bottom one ever again because they’ve been wiped out by the top ones

♡𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓪𝔀𝓫𝓮𝓻𝓻𝔂♡ :

I saw the scary one on my car

🫶🏾 :

Glad to live in Norway, yes they exist here. But it’s so few off them that it’s rare to even see them.

Harley Quinn :

I’ve never had one of the Asian lady beetle bite me

sgtDaz :

Ladybirds don’t bite, they scrape your skin to gain moisture when the weather is hot. Please don’t kill native ladybirds, the others you can rid of

Alanna :

One that I found with fun spots

Orlene :

lady bugs are red. Asian beetles are orangish red.

Ruby :

I keep seeing orange ones with less dots

252.mow :

Bro everyone said it was ladybug piss

Mysan⁵ :

If it's Asian it's only In Asia right

🦄 :

Last time I saw a ladybug was in 2020

Filip2024 :

yep, and the Asian ones will bite you

haya :

Wait which is this

Kit HarrPurr :

the Asian lady beetles are actually one of my trauma triggers. when I was a young child my sister and I were locked in a room with just a bare stained mattress, a bucket and a window by our moms bf at the time for 3 days while he beat our mom and those things swarmed the window and since my sister and I were starving we ate them. I can't be around them without having a panic attack. my husband knows about this and is very sympathetic. when they start to invade our home he goes around with our handheld vacuum and sucks them all up. one smacked my in the face on my way to the dumpster a couple days ago and I didn't even see it but I SMELLED it. I knew exactly what it was immediately.

EastCoastJane :

Couldn’t believe it when a ladybug bit me one day! Didn’t know there was an aggressive version!

Which is this?
