Way back when I was doing my masters there was a woman who chose to study ladybugs as pest control for her thesis. We picked up a few fun ladybug facts from her doing that. First, they can bite hard enough you can feel it. Second, and on the topic of the thread, if you were to scale up ladybugs to human size the male would have a penis 3' long and they'd be at it for over 24 hours. Now that's some serious bom-chikka-wa-wa.

Now, that's it, I'm coming back as a male ladybird!
