Ok I had an indoor operation for a few years
but I don't grow indoors anymore. My question is
I released a shit load of lady bugs in my grow room
because they eat small pest off plants now the
little bastards wont go away. How can I get
rid off them now that i don't need them any
more? Its annoying people always wonder
why i have lady bugs in my house..LOL
i am also interested in the answer... i currently dont have lady bugs in my home... but was recently thinking about that, if i ever needed them, how to get rid of them when i no longer need them.
thanks for the thread yabatab!
LOL man i fired them but they just
won't leave the job site. They are
to smart for fly paper.
Lowes sells some sort of Ultra High frequency gizmo that suprisingly works. I leave two on 24/7 at my cabin and when I get there on weekends, I have to sweep them up. It is also supposed to keep mice and other rodents away. And I can honestly say, I aint seen any mouse shit on the counters since I put 2 of them in there.
b0nger
Lol, it's funny that they wont go away. Just find a substance that lady bugs dont like and pollute your house with it until they just decide to leave.Quote:

Thanks...LOL
I too have one of those high freq thingies and it has seemed to help. I use to put some plants outside on cooler days when they wouldnt get scorched by the heat and then bring them back in, but they would come back in with friends from the outdoors and those friends would climb onto other plants inside..
I got one of those high pitch cherp thingies and quit putting plants outside and no more bugs at all. Infact there are less bugs in that room then there are in any other room in the house.. and no pesticide. It could all be my imagination but it seems to work.
my ladybugs usually kill themselves via landing on the lights, they stick to them; poor poor ladybugs..
You can always tell people they are for good luck and you need all the help you can get......lol
Or just bug bomb them back to the stone age.
that sounds like a mosquito repellantQuote:
