I've been seeing beetle like bugs that have a red body under their wings, and black and red wings. I need to know if they are friend or foe? They are on my salvia and milkweed, and here and there....

There are three red-n-black bugs (beetles) that favor milkweeds.

The milkweed bug looks like the culprit ~ Thanks!
