Hungry Ladybugs and Mantises Devour Insect Pests

Beneficial bugs are a safe, natural pest control

Ladybugs and praying mantises are voracious predators of many garden insect pests, including aphids, whiteflies, spider mites and mealy bugs. We'll send you approximately 1,500 adult ladybugs or an egg case of 200-300 praying mantis eggs — each adult will eat several times its weight in insect pests, daily!

Ladybugs (Hippodamia convergens) help control aphids, whitefly, spidermites, and mealybugs

Mantises (Tenodera aridifolia sinensis) eat aphids, beetles, grasshoppers, caterpillars, moths, mosquitos, and other insects
