I am at a loss trying to explain the overpopulation of ladybugs this 
year.
 They started swarming last fall and their numbers seem to increase 
daily.

According to the article in the paper, the last release of ladybugs 
in MS was in 1980.  Some people report having been bitten by 
ladybugs, but the author of the newspaper article denies that 
ladybugs bite..  He says ladybugs are just a nuisance we'll have to 
put up with  until trees foliate and they start going after the 
aphids and thrips.  I can hardly wait.

Be on the lookout for them, Pat, because they were transported to 
Dallas in my car in December and January and I know I released some!
