Hello Can anyone tell me do ladybirds have a taste for fruit and veg or are they happy just munching on aphids and greenfly? I want to control my bug problem naturally and this seems the best way but not if it means sacrificing my veg. Stuart
Ladybirds eat only the pests in your garden Stuart so go ahead and have as many as you like!! I love seeing these colourful beetles in the garden as I know the aphids will soon be history. :-D
Thanks Thanks for the info Eileen, I will order my ladybirds straightaway and say goodbye to those pesky aphids.
ladybirds will only eat the aphids, if you have a problem with pests like these, a number of sites sell lady bird larvey which do a great job of clearing all the pests.
