look who came to visit!
    #13171660 -



a lady bug has come to visit!  hallo lady bug friend :awesome:



Coccinellidae

Scientists increasingly prefer the names ladybird beetles or lady beetles, as these insects are neither birds nor bugs.

Coccinellids are small insects, ranging from 1 mm to 10 mm (0.04 to 0.4 inches), and are commonly yellow, orange, or scarlet with small black spots on their wing covers, with black legs, head and antennae. A very large number of coccinellid species are mostly, or entirely, black, grey, or brown and may be difficult for non-entomologists to recognize as coccinellids. Conversely, there are many small beetles that are easily mistaken for coccinellids, such as the tortoise beetles.

In the United States, ladybugs usually begin to appear indoors in the fall. They leave their summer feeding sites in fields, forests and yards looking for a place to spend the winter. Typically when temperatures warm to the mid 60s Fahrenheit  in the late afternoon, following a period of cooler weather, they will swarm onto or into buildings illuminated by the sun. Swarms of ladybugs fly to buildings in September through November depending on location and weather conditions.

Most ladybugs are beneficial to gardeners in general, as they feed on aphids, scale insects, mealybugs, and mites throughout the winter. As in many insects, ladybugs in temperate regions enter diapause during the winter, so they often are among the first insects to appear in the spring.

There was a lady bug on my window the other day and I took  macro picture of it and it looked amazing. It was so close.

I think I deleted the picture by accident though.

I used to slaughter ladybugs when I was a kid, by the dozens. Now I feel like such an asshole. :sad:

This.

I treat my ladybugs like kings, they are effectively free labour.

A natural garden is the way to go... people spray their gardens with chemicals to kill the pests but they also kill your workers and unfortunately the pests grow expodentially faster then the predators so you have shot yourself in the foot.

My room (along with many of my neighbors'), got infested with ladybugs last year.  They are an epidemic around my parts.  I had to nuke them repetitively with chemicals...which sucks because they are pretty cool, until you go to sleep and they are flying everywhere and in your bed and what not.

ladybugs are welcome at my abode. they eat smaller more annoying insects and they're so cute and awesome and cool.

i think it's their shiny elytra that throws me off, making them tolerable to be around. i'm usually kinda uneasy when it comes to insects and small crawly thangs but the lady bug is so magnificent and its ruby red elytra makes it seem like a little machine

it was so friendly too i just held out my finger and it crawled onto my hand and i said hello and took a picture of it and then it flew back onto my computer monitor and stayed there as i typed out the OP and did some research about him on wikipedia

around october I get a ladybug infestation, my ceiling ends up covered
with them, they also like to hide in things in the barn, I dropped a piece
of metal pipe one day and it was filled with ladybugs, there were hundreds
that dumped out of it... individually, they're cool, in large groups the
give off a bad odor

They only give a bad odor when i squash/kill them

which is something i really try to avoid.  I have bad phobias of insects and arachnids, but ladybugs and butterflies are the only two i am content with coming into contact with my skin.

Therefore, they are :awesome: in my book

Ladybugs suck ass when they infest your shit.  People who don't mind them must not live in areas where they will leave their juices and stink all in your kitchen and living room and bedroom and closet.  They can be a real pain.

Coccinellids are small insects...



??? Isn't bug the same thing as insect? At least in laymans, people refer to everything as bugs.
