I’ve always thought ladybugs were harmless, cute little fellas, but maybe I’ve been wrong about this the whole time…

A woman named Ashley took to TikTok to explain why it’s not a good sign if ladybugs show up in your home.

Ashley said, “Just a quick PSA: If you ever see these ladybugs in your home, kill them. I know what you’re thinking, ‘They’re good luck. They’re so cute.’”

She added, “You are about 20 away from an infestation, okay? But those things lay a million eggs a day. And just leaving them behind, you could have an infestation later on.”

Ashley then said, “So, RIP, Miss Ladybug.”

🚨 PSA: If you see a ladybug in your house… KILL IT. 🐞❌ Before you call me a monster, let me explain why 👀👇 1️⃣ They are invasive ladybug beetles can multiply fast indoors, turning one bug into an infestation. 2️⃣ They can trigger allergic reactions and create a messy cleanup situation. 3️⃣ Early elimination stops them from taking over your space. Don’t wait until they’re everywhere – nip it in the bud! #LadybugInvasion #homeowner #PestControl #HomeTips
