Lady Bugs?

[sa meredith]

They are everywhere, down here in my home in southern NH. Seems like on that first warm day of the spring they appear out of no where. Hang around for bit, and then disappear.
Getting tired of swatting them and then cleaning them up.
Worst thing is our 2 yr old cat has a field day chasing them all day, often climbing the window blinds to get at them. He thinks it's the greatest thing...
