DON’T Buy Ladybugs; PLANT THESE to Attract Native Ladybugs

How do you bring all the ladybugs to the garden? Well, I’ll tell you one thing: the solution is NOT to buy them. (No judgement if you have.) I used to buy ladybugs and release them with my kids, and in less than an hour, every single little pollinator would have disappeared. So trust me when I say this is a waste of time and money.

 

Instead of introducing ladybugs that come from afar, you can attract tons of ladybugs that live nearby, so they come and live in your garden. In this episod, I’ll tell you how to attract lots of ladybugs and how to ensure they stick around for the long haul.
