Lady Bugs are actually called "Asian Lady Beetles."
They are native of eastern Asia.
The Lady Bug (Beetle) was introduced to the United States by the U. S. Department of Agriculture as a biological control agent. The tree-dwelling insect can live up to three years. They are a predator of aphids and other pests. They do not bite, sting, carry human disease or feed on wood, clothing or food. They can become a nuisance to homeowners in the Fall when they come inside seeking warmth. Because they are so beneficial, they should be released back outside and not killed.
