Ladybird Control in Hammersmith and Fulham: what we see locally
Harlequin ladybirds gather in autumn to spend the winter in sheltered spots such as window frames, lofts and the corners of rooms.
Homes near the borough's parks and riverside, including Ravenscourt Park, Bishop's Park and Hurlingham, see the most. We remove the clusters and treat the entry points.
They often return to the same window frames and roof spaces each year.
Ladybirds are most often drawn to light-coloured, sunny walls and window frames on upper floors, and to houses near trees. Once a building has been used, the scent left behind draws ladybirds back each autumn, so clusters often grow year by year.

Ladybird Control in Hammersmith and Fulham: your questions
How much does ladybird control cost in Hammersmith and Fulham?
Ladybird control in Hammersmith and Fulham costs £240 for a flat or £280 for a house, with no VAT to add. The price is fixed before we visit, with no call-out charge.
Are they harmful?
Not dangerous, but can stain fabrics. They don't spread serious disease, but they can be a real nuisance in numbers, and treatment stops the problem growing.
Will they return?
They can. Sealing gaps helps. We treat the areas they're using and show you which gaps to seal, which is the best way to stop the same thing happening again next year.
Can I vacuum ladybirds up myself?
Yes, for small numbers. Use a stocking inside the vacuum nozzle so you can release them outside, then wash the area to remove the scent that attracts more.
