today i saved a lady bug from drounding in my dogs water bowl, and thought "ill treat you good, and youll treat me good," and invited her to live on my plant.
though she'll probably be gone by tommorow.

thankyou,yes lady bugs eat mites. and soda? idk about that buddy, but some neem oil, and a couple drops of dishwasher soap diluted in some water should do the trick.

You spray it with soda (or sugar water) so that the wings get stuck and it doesn't fly around, especially near the light.

Yep, I had a couple hundred in my grow room recently, they did good work ;)

Also, if you plan on keeping it around you can also toss in a grape and a piece of napkin or something soaked in water, 'cause if you have no pests then the little thing is going to starve.

its all good man, its outside so its free to go if it wants. im sure ill see more and just keep placeing them there.

BUT! that is also some good information for inside growers.

saw a lady bug chillin on my plant the other day.. didnt even put her there.. she was just chillin at the base.. i saw her today, she was dead.
in the soil.
oh well, i figure when she brakes down that will be some type of nutrient.

That really put a smile on my face :3

Aw, lovely, ladybugs eat mites and aphids, I've seen them magically manage to salvage many a pest-overrun plant.

That was really nice of you, I hope lots of good things come your way. *cuddle from me to start :3*

...Too bad the ladybug died but the resuing part was still nice!!! DX
