I have been dealing with aphids on my indoor flowering plants, I’ve tried showering them and using different sprays without success. Curious if anyone has successfully used live ladybugs for aphid control?

i have had success with ladybugs but they do scatter everywhere so beware

I have in the past, my house was ladybug city. I’ve also used predatory mites, much smaller, also worked well.

Any downsides to releasing ladybugs indoors? How many did you use?

#### KelseyC respondió el 2024-06-13

The lady bugs are the downside, but my cat loved them, so that was good. I didn’t release that many, I got a pack of 1500 and used maybe 1/8th the amount tops.
