A woman was forced out when a swarm of ladybirds laid siege to her house.
Margaret Yescombe, 42, woke up on Saturday morning to find ''thousands'' of ladybugs had forced their way in.
She found them collecting on her bedroom window, forcing themselves inside.
The swarm was so large and the insects so bold that she was forced to flee her home until they left.
She left around 3 pm in the afternoon and returned at 5 pm. Thankfully the insects had left by the time she returned.
Margaret, an artist, of Ickleton, in Cambridgeshire, said: "I got up in the morning and I saw them on the window.
"I was pretty annoyed because I had to get my cat inside and they swarmed on me.
"There were thousands, maybe even tens of thousands.
"They come in and they all crawl up into a corner and huddle there. They make a smell when they do that.
"They're so creepy. You don't feel when they land on you so you only notice they're there when you feel them crawling on you.
"You just notice an itch and find another one somewhere."
This is the second time Margaret's home has been besieged by the creepy crawlies.
The same thing happened in 2016 and Margaret believes the ladybirds come from a nearby farmland.
Margaret said: "There's my house, a hedge, a road, another hedge and then farmland.
"I suppose they want to shelter because there's no shade in the fields and my house is the first one they come across. They always seem to come from there."
Margaret is not squeamish around insects and has lived comfortably around them in the past.
But she thinks that ladybirds are worse than poisonous false widow spiders as they have no fear and will comfortably land on people.
She said: "I live in the country and I'm around bugs a lot. I had a false widow near my toilet for ages. It has a pretty nasty bite, but it kept to itself.
"I felt a tickle in my year last night and I was scared that a ladybird had got in there. There was a woman who had one for years.
"Most bugs run away but ladybirds will just land on you. They have no concept of personal space. They just don't care.
"Last year I knocked them off the wall but now if I see them swarming they get sprayed."
