Ladybird Control in Kingston upon Thames: what we see locally
In autumn, harlequin ladybirds gather in large groups to spend the winter in sheltered spots such as window frames, lofts and ceiling corners.
Homes near Richmond Park, Coombe Wood and Wimbledon Common, especially on Kingston Hill and in Coombe and Kingston Vale, see the most. Harlequins can stain paintwork and fabric and leave a smell. We remove the clusters and treat the entry points.
