RE: Extreme Aphids Attack? Time To Go Ladybug Hunting !

in #gardening6 years ago

I do landscaping for a living and in spring when i rake there is thousands of ladybugs crawling out as i rake, i gather them in tubs with holespoked and put them in my cold room in the basement till my gardens ready and just release a handful every couple days, keeps aphids and spider mites away for the most part.

Sort:  

that's interesting, so you mean they stayed under the leaves?

Thats what they do here in the canadian prairies in fall they burrow under the leaves into the grass. and in spring emmerge.
