Description

Details

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. Finished for this year - available again in Spring 2020.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
