Lady Bugs?

Well we haven't used the 5th wheel in about 5 months until yesterday when we hooked up to it and pulled it about 440 miles where we stopped for the night and went to bed. When we got up this morning there were all of these bugs that looked like Lady Bugs on the rear Picture window. Anyone have any ideal what they are and how do we get rid of them? Other then killing each and every one of them. What if they've laid eggs?
Thanks
  • Asian beetles, they come in from the cold. Don't smash them they stink. Best to scoop them up somehow and dispose of them.
  • They are not "lady bugs" they were imported and very annoying. They crawled in when the weather started turning cooler and now come out of their hiding places when they get warm. If you crush them they stink and will smell up your vacuum cleaner. I use an empty water bottle to catch them and then they go in the garbage. Slow one at a time but no mess or stink. Jim.
  • Thank your government for them. Bugs :)

    I get a lot of them in my barn, Raid flying insect spray will drop them quickly, but they keep coming.
  • likely japanese beetles. we had them once and finally, giving up on killing them, vacuumed them up instead.
