Pest Connecticut termite-beetle finds way into warm Connecticut homes

According to a newsletter published online by the University of Kentucky Agriculture Department, the first field identification of the beetle was in Louisiana in 1988. Those first specimens probably were the result of an accidental release from a ship docked in the harbor of New Orleans. The Middlesex County Pest Control board could not be reached for comment.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture attempted to establish the beetle in the United States from the 1960s to the 1990s, to control aphids in pecan and apple trees. Connecticut was one of the states the USDA chose to introduce the beetle. The animal and pest exterminator said it's unclear whether these introduced populations survived or whether the beetles we see are from the accidental release in 1988. Most local owners of pest control companies in Essex, Connecticut weren’t sure what to make of all this.

Whatever the source, the beetle has now spread throughout the eastern United States and Canada. They are about a quarter-inch long, ranging in color from bright reddish-orange to tan, often with black spots on their wings. Females have more spots, males fewer. Essex pest control is an important part of the local economy, but only a few Connecticut companies deal with wild animals.

In Connecticut, they're valuable. They eat aphids on a number of plants — roses, clover, cabbage and crepe myrtle — as well as many fruit trees and hardwoods. Louis Tedders, an entomologist with the University of Connecticut Agricultural Research Services, has said the Connecticut lady beetles beneficial impact "is among the most important of any bio control during the past 30 years." There are many types of insects and animals in Essex, and other Connecticut cities, but not all of them are pests after all.
