About 18 months ago we had a swarm of theses on the outside of our RV one cool sunny day. Then last summer (different part of the country) they stated showing up inside. Got so bad we would kill several crawling across the ceiling and windows. As many as 5 and more at a time and several times a day and night.

We actually bug bombed the inside one day. Cleaned up the dead and no more for about a year until now. We are starting to find a couple at a time inside crawling around now. Any recommendations to get rid of them completely???

That's one ugly bug!

I believe that is an Asian Lady Beetle. Hard to see. If it is, they were brought in by the Department of Agriculture to control aphids and scale insects. There are traps you can buy at places like Home Depot, but you need to keep them away from you home as it has a attractant to bring them in.

Camphor usually will keep them away.

We have a ton of them at certain times of the year.

They are also known as Stink bugs. Do not smash them. I use piece of packing tape to pick and wrap them in it. Then dump them.
In the fall they start looking for a warm place, and for some reason like RV’s?

Yes. Hate them

We have been getting them as well - couple a day.

Tried a couple of the ultrasonic bug things in living area and bedroom - didn’t seem to help.

Sprayed the bottom of the slide openings with home defense about a week ago and haven’t seen any inside since.

These plagued our RV for several years after getting an infestation in KY one year. After a while they will slowly decline in number, it takes a while. Stink Bugs

Yoko Ono will cause them to disperse and break up.

Maybe playing some of her music will also do the trick.

Another reason to pull up the jacks and hit the road…

They have stowed away in your walls. You are taking them with you. Took me three years to get of them in my house in TN. All winter long, every time it warmed up, I had the lousy things in my laundry room. I would vacuum them up, bag them up in a plastic bag and toss them in the garbage. After three years, I didn't have any more. But every year there were fewer.
