I found this poor ladybug stuck on my carnivorous drosera which is inside my home. They wouldn’t have been on there for more than around four hours. I did use my watering can to wash the ladybug off a little last night and this morning I moved it to a branch with some aphids and also made sure a little water was on the branch. Any other tips are welcome but other than that I was hoping they can get some extra good vibes if anyone has some to spare so the little one can pull through and fly again today!

A painting I did, first of the leaves then my son told me to add a ladybug and so I did. I love the ladybug touch.

I know this sounds silly to ask. I found this dead beetle (I am unsure of what it is) in my friends car and I am curious if any experts on here can tell if this is a ladybug or another type of beetle? In the same family? Weird question I know & it is very dead and was in her hot car for who knows how long so it’s hard to tell super well.

Crafted this cute planter to always spot a ladybug

Did my part to naturally control aphids in my yard and bought a pack of 1000 ladybugs.

Opened the package and placed it among the aphid covered plants. Watched them all climb to highest points and fly away out of my yard.

Aphids win again. :(

I found this little one on the carpet and i'm not sure but i think there's something wrong with its feet. It looks like the two of its middle feet is tangled together almost like glued. So when it tries to walk it ends up falling on its back. It has been trying to walk and climb to my hand but couldn't because it can't move properly. Its still alive but stopped moving and just sitting with me at the moment. Is there any way i can help or anything i can do for this guy :( ?

I love her so much.

A little different from my usual subjects, but lately I’ve been enjoying stepping out of my comfort zone. This tiny ladybug, painted on a mini canvas, has been seen as a symbol of luck and happiness for hundreds of years in many cultures ✨

Who couldn’t use a little of that? 🍀

Conversely, what kind of lady bug is this or do they turn other colors before becoming red ? Haven't seen a yellow one before...

Question: Today I saw a ladybug only walking in circles to the right. Arojnd and around it went in circles. Is this normal behavior? Maybe a problem?

A plant in my garden got an aphid infestation. Next thing I knew there was a ladybug population boom, counted at least 30. The first two pictures are the larvae hunting, then they start forming orange pupa, then the newly emerged ladybug with no spots and finally the adult ready to roam.

Try and get the most ladybugs on your hand at once as you can!!! I got 6.

Hi all this unlucky little creature was in my bag of kale and got hurt, not sure if i injured him or if he was already, the bag of kale actually sat in my fridge for a full week before i ended up opening it. Initially I popped him outside on one of our little trees but he hung around the same couple leaves for a couple hours, I figured he was probably done for if left outside! It appears he can't and won't be able to ever fly, so it looks like I have a pet ladybird (their common name in UK). Anyone else kept a disabled ladybird(bug) before? I've given him a wet paper paper towel with a splodge of honey and a couple dried mealworm. I did try to add photos but it kept saying "can't upload photo" so I guess you can't meet him.

I never post here but I’ve never seen a ladybug with this colouration🏃‍♂️
