Yes, it is -- but also no, it is not -- against the law to kill ladybugs in Tennessee.

Specifically, the law affords protection to the orange, red and yellow lady bird beetle (Coccinellidae family). It does not apply to the invasive Asian or Japanese ladybugs (Harmonia axyridis). The latter beetle is recognizable because of browning or dulling of the insect's typically cheery colors and for the letter "M" or "W" that is "spelled" out in white towards the bottom of the head segment of the ordinarily beneficial animal's head.
