    Probably waiting to deflower it. ahem.

    Found a harlequin in my bathroom tht we just stripped out - think it was hibernating behind the cabinet that I just ripped off the wall. Didn't kill it though, infact i've no idea wher eit went.

    Are you supposed to control their numbers? I submitted the survey + sent a pic for verification

My neighbour also informed me of jiggy activities going on inside them!

      Yes!. Because I was amazed at my neighbours ladybird house when she showed us it & my son (5) said he'd like one my lovely neighbour said he'd make us one! how sweet!. I can't wait, is it sad I get excited about such things?ha!

          they're honestly all over our garden at the moment, handy little things. My two year-old drops the 'lady' bit so we call them 'birds' though

              There's also a normal ladybird (ie. not harlequin) survey with ID chart here if anyone's interested
