We have had several lady beetles and stink bugs get into our house over the past couple of months – much to the cats delight. (Note: I have always called them lady bugs but now that I work for an entomologist, I have learned that the correct term is lady beetle.🐞) Recently, the cats kept staring at the kitchen cabinet; I assumed there was a bug but I couldn’t find anything. Finally, Kenn got involved with the search. It turned out that there was no bug – there was a bat in cabinet. This is the second time we’ve had a bat in the cabinet. In both instances, the bat has been removed and released outside. Now to figure out how they keep getting in!

Animals are good at alerting. We figured out there was a rat in the crawl space when our dog kept trying to dig up the floor.

Indeed. They’re the reason we find most of the lady beetles and stink bugs.

FABULOUS photo!!! I didn’t know that they were beetles. And, wow. Never had a bat inside. Bet that’s an adventure!

It’s quite a shock to open a cabinet and see a bat!

And all along I thought they stuck to belfries.

Alas, we are belfrey-less so they have to settle for the eaves of our detached carport – with occasional field trips into our kitchen cabinets.
