This organic, chemical-free pest control solution includes detailed release and storage instructions to optimize effectiveness. Ideal for eco-conscious gardeners seeking sustainable, ongoing protection through both adult ladybugs and their larvae. ## Description USE: Lady bugs prefer to eat aphids and will devour up to 50 a day, but they will also attack scale, mealy bugs, boil worms, leafhopper, and corn ear worm. They dine only on bugs and do not harm vegetation in any way. RELEASE: Lady bugs should always be released after sundown since they only fly in the daytime. During the night, they will search the area for food and stay as long as there is food for them to eat. The more they eat the more eggs they lay and the more bugs eating larvae you will have. It is best if the area has been recently watered. Ladybugs tend to crawl up and toward light. So release them in small groups at the base of plants and shrubs that have aphids or other bugs, and in the lower part of trees. RECOMMENDATIONS: Ladybugs may be kept in the refrigerator after they are received (35-50 degrees F.) and released as needed. Ladybugs received March through May should not be stored more than 2 to 3 days since their body fat has been depleted. From June on, they may be stored 2 to 3 months. It is normal for there to be several dead Ladybugs in the container, especially those received from March through May. These bugs have reached the end of their life cycle. ## Features - Live Ladybugs, Pre Fed, ladybugs covers aprox - Step-by-Step Usage Guide – Each order includes detailed instructions on how to release, store, and maximize the benefits of your ladybugs for a thriving garden. - Ladybugs are general predators that feed on a variety of slow-moving insects including Aphids, Moth eggs, Mites, Scales, Thrips, Leaf Hoppers, Mealybugs, Chinch Bugs, Asparagus Beetle larvae, Whitefly and others - Includes a Ladybug educational sheet with Release Tips, Release Rates and FAQ's - Our products are not shipped or sold in Hawaii. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CCPS32X6 | | ASIN | B0CCPS32X6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #27,624 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #99 in Beneficial Pest Control Insects | | Brand Name | Generic | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (235) | | Date First Available | July 25, 2023 | | Included Components | No | | Item Highlight | Packed in a secure ventilated container for live shipping. | | Item Nype Name | Hippodamia Convergens | | Item model number | Bugs for Garden | | Manufacturer | Rose's Garden Helpers | | Manufacturer | Rose's Garden Helpers | | Manufacturer Part Number | BB-LIVELADYBUGS2 | | Material Features | Organic | | Model Number | Bugs for Garden | | Number of Items | 5 | | Product Dimensions | 5 x 5 x 5 inches | | Size | 0.2 Ounce (Pack of 5) | | Target Species | No | | UPC | 197644766475 | | Unit Count | 1 Ounce | | Warranty Description | Popup closed | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Generic - **Manufacturer:** Rose's Garden Helpers - **Material Feature:** Organic - **Number of Items:** 5 - **Unit Count:** 1 Ounce ## Images ![301 Live Ladybugs (Hippodamia Convergens) - Beneficial Insects - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91L-vnCTnlL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pre-Fed Ladybugs | Rose's Garden Helpers| Hippodamia Convergens | Mesh Bag (301) - BioCare Ladybug Lures, Nontoxic and Pesticide-Free, Made in USA, 4 Count, Brown - S702 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/590263337-301-live-ladybugs-hippodamia-convergens-beneficial-insects](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/590263337-301-live-ladybugs-hippodamia-convergens-beneficial-insects) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-03*
