It’s a nice video, but I admit I laughed at the squelching/cracking sound FX they stuck in there. (It would have been right at home in an Aliens movie.)

Oh great. Yesterday you made me want corn dogs at 6:00 in the morning, and today you terrify me with alien bugs that are probably right now massing underneath my chair, waiting to swarm up, crawl into my ears, and eat my brain. Thanks a lot BB …

They taste awful.

Are they here in the UK?

I brushed against a bush and got an immature one on my arm, showed it to my daughter, but had to take it off as it was biting (nothing as bad as a skeeter, but still not pleasant)…

Harlequin ladybirds are invasive and quite aggressive, however all ladybirds can bite.
