We bought these lady bugs to get rid of the aphids that were in our 3 season room. They definitely did the trick and kept the aphids to a minimal until we were able to get our plants back outside.

First order everything was perfect. 2nd order there were many dead and total amount was way under. Contacted them and they offered a replacement or refund which is very appreciated.

Used for indoor garden aphid issue, followed instructions on package plus feeding instructions online (daily fresh honey, raisins, apples, lettuce, and wet cottonballs for drinking) They seem to love their new home, going crazy around the plants but staying in their designated room so far, not flying outside the room. Kids love watching them. Delivery was around two days, faster than expected. Ordered 150, 10 or so seem dead, stuck in the tight corners of the package. Some were stuck in wood chips and maybe got dehydrated not able to reach the wet cotton balls in the middle. The rest are lively and so fast. Some went for wet cotton balls and honey dribbles quick, others still exploring the plants and drinking fresh water off the leaves.

Lady Bugs are alive as guaranteed.

I’m actually ordered twice from the nature good guys the first order the ladybugs were thriving and in good health. The second quarter about a quarter of them were dead. However, I had an aphids problem in my tent. The only thing that saved that harvest were the ladybugs. And they actually stayed in the tent because they had a food source.

This is the second time I have bought ladybugs for aphid control. They were alive and well but don’t seem to be 150 of them in the bags. I released them in the cool evening on wet plants as suggested. They started moving around and I had high hopes they would work out but the next morning there is no sign of any of the three bags I purchased. I see there is food to apply to the garden for them so I may give it one more shot when they come back in stock.

About 3/4 of the bugs survived shipment, not bad all things considered. They effectively ate about half my aphid population in 3 days. Make sure to spray the plants down ( fine mist) twice a day as the lady bugs drink the water off the leaves. You can literally watch them doing this which is very cool. I released mine both inside (window garden) and outside (balcony planters). Outside, they flew away asap. Inside, they stayed. It's been 2 weeks, and they are loving the sun in the window and are chowing down on aphids. They do not go elsewhere in my house. They seem to like the window area a lot. 2 weeks later, I have about 40 or so left. Quite a few died in the first few days after arriving but then most stuck around after (a few found ways out of the house...they do fly after all...when I had opened a window). No issues with them at all. It has been a great learning experience, and they have reduced my pests down to a much smaller #.

I had some thrip damage to my pepper plants in my aquaponics system so I purchased the lady bugs to take care of the thrips. The lady bugs arrived within 2 to 3 days which was pretty fast. As soon as they arrived I moved them in the house and released them. I would estimate that about 3/4 of the lady bugs survived. I released them onto my plants after the grow lights turned off and I had misted the plants with water so they could get a drink. They immediately started crawling around doing there thing.After 1 week, I think I still have maybe 3 ladybugs that are alive. While the majority of them arrived alive, they didn’t do a good job of staying alive. My aquaponics system has around 30 to 40 plants in it and is a decent size with three grow beds so there was plenty of hunting area. My thrip population was decent because I had damage to almost all of my plants so I would assume there was plenty for them to eat. My aquaponics system is in my garage which is heated and stays between 68 and 75 degrees all year so weather wasn’t an issue. I’m not sure what happened to the rest of the gang or why they all died. My plants were never sprayed with any chemicals because that could potentially harm the fish and was the reason for the lady bugs. It’s a mystery.
