Lady Bugs 🐞 We released over 1,000 lady bugs into our garden to help with pest control rather than spraying chemicals! Lady Bugs are insect predators and will help keep the garden pest population down. Ladybugs are beneficial for your garden because they eat other insects rather than plant material. Who would have thought something so sweet looking could be such a beast? 😂 Ladybugs can eat between 50 and 60 aphids per day and up to 5000 over its lifetime. They also eat other softbodied insects

Such great insight from Mareen from @sugarbushfarmstn 🐞 Lady bugs are wonderfully beneficial to our gardens, as they eat aphids, mites and scale insects which all feast on our beloved plants. #garden #gardening #aussiegardens #veg #homegrown #homegrownveg #veggieharvest #aussiegardens #bugs #ladybugs #beneficialbugs #urbanfarm #brookfield #brisbane #vegegarden | Brookies Rural Traders
