I get them in my outdoor sump in the summer. They must be wintering in your house somewhere.

I pulled a dead one out of my sump about a month ago. A few weeks ago I also found a live one upstairs. One of my houseplants has spider mites so I tossed it in there. I'm not sure if they eat spider mites or not but its worth a try.
