They can bite. Their diet consists of small insects and mites. It is more of a pinch. They are not blood suckers and do not inject anything but for a sensitive person in a sensitive spot it can irritate for a while. Like any other small injury, clean it with a dab of witch hazel followed by a dab of aloe or lavender oil or tea tree oil should do it if you need to do anything at all.

Lady Bug Bites

Yes, I have been bitten by a ladybug...I think it mistook my finger for food and tried to take a bite. Probably thought I was plant material or something....but it did hurt more than I thought it would for such a small, innocent looking bug!

I loved ladybugs growing up i thought there was only one in the world little did i know there are millions of them now. Over this past weekend I was picking apples off my apple tress with about 6 other people and we were all getting bit like crazy now 3 days later i still have bumps and im itching non stop and it driving me NUTS the spots where i was bitn and this goes the same with my husband are red raised bumps and we have them all over. The time we were bittn it did hurt and now we are paying for it.

Well, I didn't think so, but one just bit me on the arm. Tiny bite, and drew a tiny bit of blood. I put some tea tree oil on it. Felt like a little pinch when it bit me. I had no idea they could bite.. 67 yrs old and still learning new things..

There are bugs that look just like lady bugs . But they are really asian beatles and they bite The dept of agriculter imported them to the u.s.a. because the feed on a type of larva that destroys crops .Unfortunatly the beatles numbers went out of control and there will be millions of them everywhere some times

I just read an article in one of the local po dunk papers here. Said that they can kind of pinch, hardly feel it though. But I guess they can expel their own blood as a defense, and that will stain anything. That's why they're considered a pest. I'll see if I can find that article and post a link.
