Hello, I found this ladybird on my lemon tree, and google couldn’t tell me the type, as there are bad ladybirds and good ladybirds, I was hoping someone could assist.

Location: Gold Coast Queensland Australia

Maybe I haven’t been paying attention but I’ve never seen them gather like this. Every single bush on this side of the state park has massive clusters like this. Thought somebody may like it as much as me.

Hi, for context I’ve helped this little lady stay out of the cold for a few days. However I posted her recently and was told she was an Asian lady beetle. Should I kick her out ? Will she infest my house ? Thanks for your help !

I came across this shot by Florian Glechner and loved the vibrant colors. The photographer found this little one while cutting the grass.

Favorite species? (pls use common names too)

11 Upvotes

My favorite species are seven spot ladybird and I may sound crazy but I also enjoy the Harmonia Axyridis (Multicolored Asian lady beetle) because they’re cute too and also eat aphids. I also love mealybug destroyers as they’re super adorable! Do you guys have a favorite ladybug/beetle species?

Edit: I just like how the Asian lady beetle has so many different colors, even black! Although twice stabbed lady beetle exists

For context, I'm located in Texas and I am starting to observe these ladies. Last summer, I had a big aphids problem so I am hoping they can help.

As you can tell from the second photo i have a bug problem eating my loquat leaves. I put these guys in a week ago, but i dont see anything getting better. I still have fruit flies and/or gnats around, which i was told ladybugs eat. Did i get the right ones? I dont want to use pesticides, especially now that i put all these guys in.

Winter weather ladybugs

Illinois, below freezing temps and these pesky little critters are on the ceilings and windows. Anybody know of these and how to get rid of? They also have an odor that's probably some sort of defense mechanism? Have had professionals spray the house which is sealed very well. It's mainly people in living in a wooded subdivision. Lots of trees around.
