Knock on wood I do not have the problem of these so called lady bugs and I use the ultrasound sound pest controllers so they might be worth a try. On how to clean keyboards with them I am unsure, don't smash them as they leave yellow gunk around.
Btw: these so called lady bugs are actually Asian beattles they killed off the actual lady bugs cause they had no devences to fight off the meaner ones. I forget why they were brought in to the us or if they just came on there own hitching a ride from something imported. -----Original Message----- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert J.

Some call them African or asian beedles. They are a little domed shape bug with a hard shell. They kind of just look like a little round bump like you would find on the home row of some key boards. Now that I have described them the best I can. How do you get rid of the darned things without using chemicals? I remember some one posting about those plugg in gagetts that put out a frequency. Does any one know if they work spacifically on lady buggs? My brother and his wife have one and it works great for flies and spiders and the like but I don't know about ladie bugs. Just because it works for one thing does not garentee that it will work for other things and I just hate to piss away money on some thing that is not tried and true. So not to be rude but please no guesses I only want to hear what if any thing has actually worked consistantly for ladie bugs.
