Harbouring the enemy

After our walk in the park and ladybird encounter I did a little bit of ladybird research.

I read about the Harlequin ladybird, the most invasive ladybird on Earth. Not long after finding out about this evil little Harmonia axyridis, which isn't actually little at all, I find I am harbouring this enemy of our native ladybirds.

Our bathroom seems to be the perfect hideout. Here they are:

And it seems our house is almost at the epicentre of this destructive beast's attack as illustrated by this map of sightings.

I know I should kill the wee beasties but I can't. Any volunteers?
