4. Stop buying their automobiles.

16. catch them! catch and release lady beetles!
catch 1, put it in a jar and go to a plant nursery. ask them-it's difficult to say. I read where you said they bite and I have never heard of ladybirds doing that...

13. As a God of the Beetles
My opinion is that you should just ask them to leave real nicely. I'll put in a good word for you.
