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.
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.

"I brought my girls here to have a homeschool lesson about botany for their science study! We had one of their employees, Evan, walk us around the center and take us into the greenhouses. I felt like he went above and beyond to help my girls with what they need to know and it was great! My kids had a great time and he knew what he was talking about. Thanks again Evan!"
