NaturesGoodGuys Live Ladybugs for Organic Gardening, 750 Count

All of them were alive and healthy. Got them to prevent aphids! Also just really fun and cool for my kids.

Thanks for having this product! It arrive before promised, absolutely all lady bugs were alive and they immediately got to work. It was pretty amazing to watch them climb my honeysuckle and climbing roses.I got one bag and took turns, first placed at the base of my honeysuckle, halfway out I move the bag to my climbing rose which is huge she is climbing a pergola, 15 minutes later there were still over 20 lady bugs still in the bag so I carefully cut another hole and move the bag to another part of the rose climber.3 weeks later I was still finding lady bugs in my garden, best part they cleaned up my honeysuckle and it was able to do it's second round of flower beautifully. Very happy with this product and definitely buying it next year but earlier in the season.PS: My question to those who are disappointed next day because they dont see the ladybug and think they are gone, Do you see the other millions of bugs working in your garden??? The ladybug are there, just not in plain sight for other predators to see them. 🙂

The first shipment had 3/4 ladybugs not alive. I told the seller, who offered a refund or replacement. I chose replacement. When I got the second batch, most of them were alive, only a few didn't make it. I turned them loose on my gardenia, that was overrun with aphids, and they were voracious ladies! No more aphids!

I couldn't believe how many Ladybugs there were and once the package was opened they all wanted to come out! Way more than I needed so I ran up & down the street sprinkling them in my neighbors year. They ate all the bugs I had to get off my plants and I didn't have to use poison.

I must admit I was very worried that they would be dead because they were dropped off to the PO on June 3 and I did not receive them till June 9th. I thought for sure they would be goners! Nope. Even in Texas weather 100°, they were all scrambling around when I opened the box. I released them that evening about 8:15 and I lightly misted my crêpe myrtles before I did. The ground around the base were pretty wet from the rain that we had that morning. We have a ton of aphids so they have plenty of food.Today is day two and they are hard at work!I watched many videos and several people suggested putting up netting so I did that days in advance so that they would not fly away immediately. I love this so much better than spraying the plants with pesticides!!!🥰

Some were dead, but otherwise most were in good health.

Fast shipping well packaged all ladybugs were alive. No dead ladybugs. I used scissors to cut the ends of the bag and let the ladybugs climb out themselves. Package included a book of beneficial insects and information on pest control. Happy customer will buy againUpdate: checked daily for about a week and only saw one of the many ladybugs that stuck around and eventually none. I'm assuming they flew off to a more attractive landscape. I did notice that when they started flying that they would fly super high probably about 50 ft up in the sky.

I really enjoyed this process. When they arrived it was almost 100 degrees outside. I brought them in, spritzed them with water (and later with sugar water) and let them cool in the dark for a few hours. We had a storm roll through to dampen everything so I released them before dark. I sprayed the green leaves with sugar water and then released them. Next time I'll cut across the entire top to let them release better. I was racing a lightning storm so it had to be done quick and I only allowed for a small corner opening. By the time I realized my mistake they were flooding the exit and I didn't want to cut anyone by making a bigger hole. They crawled out and moved all over the place. Some went straight for wooly aphids and the aphids jumped right off the plant. It was a great experience. The only thing I regret is that they are shipped in an almost flat mesh screen bag. I was so worried they had been crushed. We did lose some to that very thing. I'd love to have gotten them in a small mesh box of sorts. It would be safer for them and easier to release them for us. That's my only issue. I'll order these again for sure! I checked on them this morning and there were plenty still hanging around. I'm not sure that there were any where near 750 lady bugs in the order. However, I didn't count them all out. Felt more like 200, but I'm aware that they are sold by weight. Thanks for the experience.
