“I ordered 50 ladybird larve for a greenfly infested rose bush. The box contained some tiny dots that I think must have been very young larve (they usually look like minute crocodiles). I hung the bags in the bush but there was no impact on the infestation (let alone seeing any larvae at work, or any pupae, or any recently hatched ladybirds). After 6 weeks, I went back to squirting with dilute washing up liquid, which worked a treat. I don't know if the larvae were too young, or it was too cold, or if they were dead on arrival, but I wouldn't order again.”

“As above. Unfortunately 2 sets failed to produce any Ladybirds.”

“Ordered lacewing and ladybird larvae to deal with a huge infestation of willow aphids and the result is miraculous! 4 weeks ago the branches were encrusted with aphids and now I honestly can't see a single one. Amazing!”

“I purchased ladybird larvae. They were much smaller than expected, just tiny dots. I placed them on my plants with greenfly. It was impossible to see them. I have no idea whether they did their job. No sign of them and still have greenfly. It was a nice idea, but once I'm sure they're not around I'll go back to spraying with washing up liquid.”

“The warmer weather has seen a massive increase in aphids attacking the garden, and whilst researching a non-pesticide alternative to the problem, I came across a lot of like minded gardeners recommending ladybird larvae as a more organic solution. One month on and I can safely say that they were indeed a resounding success! The green aphids afflicting my rose bush have been soundly defeated, and whilst it took a little longer due to the number of the blighters, I’ve seen similar results with a very aggressive infestation of black ones draining my buddleia. All in all, I can’t recommend this purchase enough.”
