SNOW!

It's going to be snowing all day today in Columbus!

How do lady beetles survive the harsh winter?

Lady beetles survive by aggregating as adults under leaf litter, rocks, bark, and in other protected places including buildings.

Flight to overwintering locations is triggered by cold weather and a decline in prey. The behavior occurs at different times from year to year.


If you saw lady beetles in your house this fall, it's likely you might see them this spring!
