This package is perfect for shipping Ladybugs through FedEx, UPS or USPS ground or air. This excellent packaging allows maximum breathing for the Ladybugs and protects all their body parts from bouncing around in the shipping process. 
 
Ladybugs, also called lady beetles or ladybird beetles, are a very beneficial group. They are natural enemies of many insects, especially aphids and other sap feeders. A single lady beetle may eat as many as 5,000 aphids in its lifetime. A female ladybug will lay up to 500 eggs in her life, usually laying a cluster of up to 30 eggs at a time. Less recognizable to the untrained eye, however, is the ladybug larvae. Small, long, black and spiney, with little yellowish-orange stripes, the alligator-like ladybug larva looks far removed from its future, adult self, and can get confused with more destructive insects young. It is for this reason that many gardeners accidentally spray the ladybug larvae from their plants leaves, thinking they are ridding themselves of a foe, when in actuality, they are killing one of the best garden friends they could have. Mist lady beetles with a water spray before release. 
 
Make releases in the evening at dusk by placing beetles on canes at the base of plants. Wet plants first with a fine spray of water. The remaining lady beetles are unlikely to lay eggs and will fly away once aphid populations have been substantially reduced. Like the adult ladybug, the ladybug larvae feeds on your garden foes, and has a particular affinity for aphids, though they will also feed on scale, mites, insect eggs, thrips and more (even each other if they run out of food!). Voracious eaters who can eat their weight in prey each day, they will travel the length of your garden and back looking for pests to eat over the approximate 10-20 days of this life-cycle.
