Any experienced gardener knows that some insects can be beneficial for the well-being of their plants. We offer a variety of live insects you need to maintain a beautiful, healthy garden, naturally.
A favorite "good bug," ladybugs feast on troublesome "bad bugs:" aphids, mealy bugs, scale, and leafhoppers when released on your crops at sundown (since they don't fly at night). These beneficial insects will keep eating until the bad guys are gone, laying their own eggs in the process, which will ensure fresh ladybugs will be waiting if the pests return. This product will not ship until the first week of your frost-free date. Subject to availability.
