WOO! I was sincerely hoping to get more ladybugs then! I haven't seen any aphids, but want the ladies around in case!

If you haven't seen any aphids then that's probably the ladybugs already working.

They're such voracious & vicious predators. Watch them feast up close — magnified, if you dare. 😱🤘🏼
