This is a great site for learning about ladybugs, here.
Interesting Facts:
-            Because Ladybugs eat lots of aphids and other pest insects, many gardeners and farmers use them for pest control instead of chemicals.
-            A Ladybug can lay up to 1000 eggs in its lifetime.
-            Not all Ladybugs have spots.
-            Ladybugs will clean themselves after a meal.
-            Ladybugs come in many colors like pink, yellow, white, orange and black.
-            Over 300 types of Ladybugs live in North America.
-            Ladybugs make a chemical that smells and tastes bad so predators won’t eat them.
-            Ladybugs hibernate in large groups in cold weather.
-            Many countries consider a ladybug to be a sign of good luck.
-            Ladybugs are actually beetles, so sometimes are called LadyBeetles.
-            The bright colors of Ladybugs warn birds that they don’t taste good.
-            The spots on a Ladybug fade as they get older.
