lieveheersbeestjes (ladybugs)

lieveheersbeestjes by rob20.

There are many little beetles, possibly a sort of ladybug, in my apartment. MB thinks they may have hatched inside the living room. Or they might have flown right inside when MB leaves the door open to the balcony area. Either way, the beetles in the apartment are small and yellowish, not red, but they do have the black spots and the general shape of a small ladybug. There doesn't seem to be enough of the right kind of food for them, or perhaps they just have an extremely short lifespan, because their tiny dead bodies are turning up in odd places, such as the top of a plastic CD container, and in my water bowl.
