The "ls" command is configured for color output on your system.
Using "ls --color=none" should provide some temporary relief. This should
be clearly documented, just type "man ls".
A more permanent solution would to be to create an alias for the
ls command so that it always uses the "--color=none" option. To do so, you
would execute this command:
alias ls='ls --color=none '
