Did you know you can use lady bugs to control aphid infestations?

“he beneficial species of ladybugs eat aphids, chinch bugs, asparagus beetle larvae, alfalfa weevils, bean thrips, grape root worm, Colorado potato beetles larvae, spider mites, whiteflies, mealybugs, among other insects. For example, two species – Harmonia axyridis and Hippodamia convergens – prey on aphids. A single ladybug may consume as much as 5,000 aphids in its lifetime. In addition to being beneficial, their help comes cheap. Ladybugs are an inexpensive solution to warring on garden pests and are cheaper than chemical pesticides. They also won’t hurt people, plants or pets. Finally, they are also a “self-renewing” form of insect control. You can purchase ladybugs to control garden pests here.” quoted from https://www.planetnatural.com/ladybugs-pest-control/
