Damnit man! How many bugs you got?;) That guy came in when you opened the door. Take him outside and free him;) Make sure you kill or set free any big bugs, they carry micromites on them. Moths carry micromites

Def a lady bug. I have a small lady bug farm in my grow area. over 5000 lady bugs at anyone time. I have seen them pure black and others brown. Not all lady bugs have spots. Some gain them as they get older some do not. People tend to think you can tell how long they are by the spot or if they are mail or female. Fact is it all is untrue.

The only way to tell male from female is under a microscope. Not even a scientist can look at one and tell what sex they are. Kind of interesting really. Sorry for the extra info. I tend to do that from time to time.
