I dont' get ladybugs too bad, but I have friends that do. If you mix half mixture of baking soda and half icing sugar they are attracted to it and eat it. Unfortunatly,(for the ladybug)they do not have a (gas release) for no better terminology and when they eat the mixture, they blow up because the soda creates gas and they die. As far as the stench goes, maybe try adding baking soda to your central vac canister, maybe that could eliminate some of the odour. Hope this is helpful.

if the invasion carrys on for a few days, the vacuum bag reeks every time the machine is turned on. I do use a little backing soda and light an incense stick when i'm done for the day

thankfully our invasion hasn't been as bad as it was a few years ago

simply amazing for lack of a better word,,,,and really gross too
