DESCRIPTION
Scientific Name: Hippodamia convergens
Also known as the convergent lady beetle, LADYBUGS are among the most recognized garden allies. They exhibit the typical round dome shape of the Coccinellidae family, measure about 5-8mm, and have red to orange colored wing covers adorned with black spots. They are distinguishable from other lady beetles by the prominent black and white lines that converge behind the head. Both adults and larvae will actively seek and feed on a wide range of small insects, and occasionally nectar and honeydew. Adults can thrive for weeks or months in a variety of temperatures and humidity levels, as long as they have adequate food and water. In some cases, they may even overwinter in cracks and crevices. The full life cycle, from egg to adult, takes approximately 2-3 weeks. Females seek out aphid colonies and lay small clusters of 200 to over 1,000 yellow spindle-shaped eggs on the undersides of leaves. In about 3-5 days, the eggs hatch into dark, alligator-like larvae with three pairs of legs. These larvae actively seek prey for the next 10-30 days, sometimes traveling as far as 40 feet. After full development, the larvae undergo pupation for 3-12 days in a protective pupae attached to a leaf or stem until emerging as fully formed adults.

Our carefully chosen ladybugs go through a special cleaning and feeding process to make sure they are in tip-top condition. We include a food and drink source in each retail package to keep them ready for action.


LADYBUG LIFE-CYCLE:

Egg: 2-5 days  |  Larvae: 21 days  |  Pupa: 7 days  |  Adult: 1 year

 

TEMPERATURE
33-105°F


INTRODUCTION RATES
LIGHT INFESTATION:
Introduce 1 ladybug per square foot, monthly.

MODERATE INFESTATION:
Introduce 1 ladybug per square foot, bi-weekly, 2-3 times.

HEAVY INFESTATION:
Introduce 1 ladybug per square foot, weekly, 2-4 times.


It's important to note that these release rates serve as general guidelines and may vary based on the specific pest species, the crop or plant being treated, and level of infestation. Proper monitoring of the infestation and the subsequent effectiveness of the released beneficial insect population is crucial for determining the success of the biological control strategy.


HOW TO RELEASE:

  1. Introduce ladybugs in the early morning, evening, or on a cloudy day when the temperatures are cooler. 
  2. Mist leaves to improve ladybug habitat. Misting the foliage beforehand may improve performance. With ample food and moisture, ladybugs can begin to reproduce immediately.
  3. Introduce ladybugs at the base of the plants.
  4. Introduce multiple times throughout the growing season to stay ahead of the pest lifecycle.

STORAGE
CONSUMER STORAGE:
For best results introduce immediately. Store at 36-45°F for no longer than 30 days.

RETAIL STORAGE:
Enjoy a shelf life of 30 days. Keep them away from direct sunlight, and if you’re storing them in the fridge at 36-45°F, they can last up to 4 weeks without watering. When they’re on display, give them a light mist once a week. To make them last even longer, switch them between display and the fridge each week.


PRO TIPS:
Proper identification of the pest species is important. Monitoring the crop closely and introducing beneficial insects early will help in control pest populations.

Pesticides, even wetting agents, and spreader-stickers may adversely affect beneficial insects' survival. Broad spectrum and systemic insecticides are toxic.

It works to divide a room, but it's not easy to use.
Color: Grey, Size: 6 Panel
This comes in multiple pieces and you have to build every single piece including the cloth that is between the two poles. There are plastic clips to hold the sections together, but they easily come off if you move the dividers the wrong way or try to reposition it. The only thing holding it up is rectangular shaped feet on the bottom and they are a pain when you hit it with your toes. It works if you need to divide a room, but its not pretty and there are far better options. It's cheaply made and has a habit of falling down if you are trying to use it in a straight or slightly angled line.

Great privacy room divider
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
I got this room divider for our game room that shares the garage/laundry room, to separate the spaces. I was happy that it was relatively easy to put together in less than an hour with nothing more than a screwdriver (provided) although I used a small handheld drill. The instructions were pretty straightforward and easy to understand as everything was labeled. I have 2 small grandkids at home running around while I put this together so my timeline to completion might be longer than others. It recommends 2 people to assemble, but I was able to complete alone in about 40 minutes total and as I said I used a small handheld drill, (although it does come with a small Philips screwdriver) which is the only tool you need for assembly. The first two panels took me about 20 minutes but the other 4 were simple repeats after the initial 2. After all 6 panels were assembled the plastic clips to piece them together were literally a "SNAP" to put on. The poles are made of metal and the panels are made of a very sturdy almost canvas like fabric. When held up to the light not a lot shined through so very good for privacy. You can snap them together in sections and have 2 separate panels of 3 or what ever configuration you want. They are easy to move and bend around furniture or other obstacles, also fold flat together if you need to put them aside for storage. This worked out just as we had planned, very easy to move around when needed and I am very happy with this product. I loved how simple it was to put together, easy instructions, and the durability and functionality of it.
