I'm also in NW Pennsylvania. The Asian lady bugs are around here too, but they just look like regular little lady bugs, right? These bugs are about an inch long and have a brown diamond shape on their back. We sprayed one with all the bug killers we could find, and after a few days in the jar, the bug was still alive and kicking. The pine trees are what draws them here. We thought about cutting all the pines trees down just to get rid of them. That is still an option, but with about 400 or more, 60 + year old trees, it would be quite a job.
Boop I am not sure where you live, but here in NW Pennsylvania we have Asian lady bugs that appear in the spring and then again around October. They sound like the bugs you are talking about. Ortho makes a spray that is suppose to keep them out of your house and I also found that it will kill them when you spray it directly on them. It is called Home Defence, put out by Ortho.
