Hi hc
Great picture. Obiviously you like ladybugs!

Me too. I have now become an ambassador to the ladybug larvae. Having mistaken them for an nasty leaf eatting wormy thingy, great name, I know, I am now their spokesperson. So, just in case you have not encountered them let me share a picture of one with you, and anyone reading this thread.

Amazing don't you think?

The stage between larvae and adult is pretty unusual too. I'll get a picture up so you'll have a heads up on that too. Is there a forum for beneficials? That might be fun to share this kind of stuff on. I'll ask Dave, that is if their isn't one already set up.
