Pre-fed Live Ladybugs from Tip Top Bio Control
Ladybug eggs are normally found in clusters of 10-50 and will begin to hatch in 3-10 days. The alligator-shaped larvae are black with orange spots and immediately begin to eat pests. The adult Ladybug will feed and lay up to 1,500 eggs over many days. Several generations may occur in one season.
- Targets aphids, moth eggs, mites, scale, thrips, leafhoppers, mealybugs, and other slow-moving insects
- About 500 specimens in this pack
- Can be stored for several weeks if the container is kept between 40 and 60°F and is misted occasionally

Release Instructions: Ladybugs should be released in the evening, early morning, or when it is cool, as ladybugs will move more slowly during these times. Misting the foliage beforehand may improve performance. With ample food and moisture, ladybugs can begin reproducing immediately. Open the bag and gently tap the insects onto the base of infested plants or desired release area. Ladybugs like to climb upwards! Leave the bag in the area for 24 hours after the release to allow the ladybugs to exit.
