I thought Japanese beetles were the ones that look like miniature June bugs. The Asian ladybugs are kinda goldish-brown with black spots, but otherwise like a regular ladybug. If u squash one they stink like lightning bugs... ickkkk. I have them here at my house and they love to congregate on the ceiling of my sewing room.

I had a swarm this fall. They have gotten in crevices in the house and everytime it warms up a bit they are all over the place. Pesky little buggers they are.
