Asian Beetle Apocalypse

Many people today are obsessed with the zombie apocalypse. I think they are focused on the wrong thing.

What they should really be worried about is the Asian Beetle Apocalypse.

That's what our farmette is facing right now. 

The other day, I came home from school and saw forty or so bugs crawling on one of the doors. Another thirty bugs were lying on the mat. We also found them on the ceiling, on the window ledges, and flying around our house and building. They are thoroughly invading our farmette. Incredibly creepy, if you ask me. 





We thought at first that they were ladybugs. It turns out that they are actually a type of Asian Beetle. They look a lot like ladybugs, but the coloring is different. Either way, it would be awfully nice if they would leave.

I can handle a lot of things, but I do not do bugs. Especially when they land in my hair or crawl on my clothing. 

Our chickens don't like these bugs either. Apparently, they taste about as good as they smell. Which isn't good at all.
