Ladybugs are common in the spring and summer, but they can become a nuisance if they start invading your home.

1. Vacuum them up
Ladybugs are attracted to light and tend to congregate around bright lights.
It makes it easy to get rid of them by using a vacuum cleaner.

Add an LED light into the funnel, leaving room for the ladybugs to enter the bottom of the bottle.
The beetles will flock toward the light but then get stuck in the trap, ready for release outside.
3. Use a net
You can use a mosquito net or a fine-weave fabric-like cloth.
