Ladybird Family - Ladybirds are the best known beneficial insect and a welcome sight in the garden, where they happily munch away on greenfly and other tasty pests. By releasing ladybirds in your garden you can boost their numbers, which will lead to a permanent decrease in the number of pests in your garden i.e. aphids. Ladybirds are available between April and August each year. N.B. Green Gardener only supplies British Adalia bipunctata ladybirds - we do NOT supply Harlequin ladybirds. Ladybirds are available between March and August each year. Finished for this year - available again in March 2021.
Ladybird Larvae - Each ladybird larvae will eat a large number of pests before pupating and emerging as a ladybird ready to breed and produce the next generation of ladybirds. As they are supplied as larvae, they are ideal for releasing directly onto plants heavily infected with aphids - as they they are unable to fly and will stay where you put them. Supplied in trays of approximately 50, they are sent by 1st class post ready for release directly into your garden / greenhouse or conservatory.
Adult Ladybirds - We supply native British Adalia bipunctata ladybirds in packs of ready for release in your garden. The ladybirds are sent by 1st class post with food included. Ladybirds are natural predators of aphids (greenfly and blackfly) as well as being a gardener's / youngster's favourite. They should be released directly onto aphid infected plants or dotted around the garden either early in the morning or late evening. Supplied in packs of 25, they are sent by 1st class post ready for release directly into your garden / greenhouse or conservatory.

Great company and products. I've bought codling moth and plum moth preventatives - no caterpillars in our Victoria plums ???? Have also bought adult ladybirds and larvae which really helped with aphids.
Price - I found the dual pack of live ladybirds and their larvae to be ideal.

I was thrilled to be able to buy a natural way to deal with a black fly infestation on my lovely Elderflower tree. I found the dual pack of live ladybirds and their larvae to be ideal. They arrived safely with easy to understand instructions and have made the Elder their home. No pesticides or insecticides and lots of beautiful ladybirds.

At some point in the summer we get some kind of pest - usually greenfly. And rather than spray them with yuck I get some ladybirds and some larvae from Green Gardener and they sort it out pretty quickly!

We bought adult and larval ladybirds, as well as the ladybird home from Green Gardener to help with our aphid problem. Dispatch and delivery was very quick. All insects and home arrived in good condition. It's been exciting watching the larvae turn into ladybirds!

THis is a brilliant company to buy garden products from. I couldn't believe how efficient the ladybirds were. I release them on my beans with blackfly, thought first of all that they were a bit slow ( unfortunately a lot of gardeners expect instant results) but they started breeding, laying eggs and turning into larva and then suddenly they just multiply and no matter how may aphids arrived ( sprays are too short lived) they sucked the beans dry of them and I had the best crop ever. I will certainly buy more of them if they fail to over winter although I now have little homes for them all around the garden so Im hoping they will survive. Other things ive bought have been great as well as I dont want anything in my garden that will poison the frogs or other insects. Unfortunately a lot of people still use pesticides and it kills all insect even the useful ones and spoils the food chain

Ladybirds arrived promptly and all alive. Managed the aphid population very quickly. Ladybird barn proving a big hit as well. Have since spotted larvae amongst the vegetation. Big success in dealing with Aphid population without pesticides or chemicals. Will certainly be visiting site again regularly.
Price - I ordered ladybirds with some trepidation, but no need for worry.

I ordered ladybirds with some trepidation as to how they would travel and arrive safely - no need for worry. They arrived well packaged and with full instructions. They have worked well on the greenfly on fruit trees and roses and to our joy - remain in the garden.
Price - They are hoovering up the aphids with great enthusiasm and my plants are thriving.

Price - They have done a wonderful job

For the last few years I have purchased your ladybird larvae and adults to boost the population in my area bit by bit. They have done a wonderful job at controlling the numbers of green aphids and earlier this year has been the first where I have seen both adult ladybirds and larvae in the garden before needing making a purchase.
