Just an FYI, farmers are using Lady Bugs to control aphids on crops. The farmer releases thousands of them, then they lay eggs and thousands more emerge. The reason you are having problems with them for weeks is they are successive generations. They are pretty harmless to rvs.
And a little more information:
"Ladybugs are not native to the United States. They were first imported from Austrailia to control aphids on orange trees. Since that time, hundreds of different kinds of ladybugs have been imported to control aphids on different crops. You know those pesky asian ladybugs that get in your house every winter? - well those actually control aphids in soybeans."
Will they die off at some point or will I have to deal with them through out the spring and summer?
