Ya I think I'd much rather have a bunch of preying mantis around the house but I've heard good things about lady bugs as well.

The throat you say? Really? I heard it was the anus.

That is the Japanese Ladybug.

Looks kinda like a bird house except smaller entry slits. I guess the lady bugs just eat other bugs that try to seek shelter in there. Does it actually work?

I still have the ladybug house but I brought it indoors for the winter. I could put it outside again and hope to attract more ladybugs. But I'll probably by another container of live ladybugs again since they are not really expensive.

We were noticing insects eating our tomato leaves and other plants which is why I purchased the ladybugs. You also have other bug predator options like praying mantis which will also eat insects. There are also nematodes which eat things like grubs etc...

you can even buy a set of 400 mantis eggs.
Those insects are evil and scary when they get big though, I hate it when they attack.

I wonder, does it work? Don't they all just fly away?

They're pretty cheap anyway so you can probably just buy a batch every year if they really work.

Mantis eggs are easy to find, and they hide nicely in a desk drawer ;^)

Knew a woman that was quite serious about pranks. A guy thought he was better. He threw in the towel when she releases $20 worth of crickets in his car.😀

I guess I am lucky as there are thousands of ladybugs in my backyard 🙂

He should have countered with an open can of tuna under the seat :^P

There's no "c" in kraken!

That reminds me of the day I was working in the garden...felt like I was being watched...and saw this:

I've hatched a lot of them before. I've probably seen 5x as many nymphs before. There are two distinctly different kinds of mantis egg sacs around here.

Did someone ask for ladybugs?

 

[D1gger]

I'll see your 1500 ladybugs and raise you 5 million nematodes I just spread in the back yard.

But were they golden nematodes?

saw an image on reddit of someone who wanted to do that. Funny part is they escaped in his dorm before he could use them.
