Ladybug House

Is there a way to get rid of ladybugs in my house without using pesticides?

Every fall my house is raided by ladybugs. I have used pesticides in the past but I hate doing that because they can be so harmful to humans, plus my son and I are very sensitive to them.

University studies show the best way is to vacuum them once they are in your house. However the best long term solution is to go get three tubes of caulk and a caulk gun and go around the outside of you house and fill every crack and hole that you can find. It’s a lot of work but these lady bugs spend the winter between the outer wall and inner wall of your house. Once in that spaceif there are openings in the inner wall, well, then they are in your house. If they can’t get between those walls your problem is solved. I get 2 or 3 a year in my house.
