“Only saw 2 larvae and have not noticed any increase in ladybird numbers. Lot of black fly on my beans and greenfly on the roses.”

“After roughly dividing the little paper packing strips into five piles I put each pile into one of the supplied envelopes and, at the tree where the aphids were, inserted a leaf and pinned the envelopes into position at various points. Five days later I removed them and checked to see if there were any larvae still in them. There weren’t and now, a couple of weeks later, the honeydew problem is virtually gone. Thank you Ladybird Larvae”

“I’m sorry to say these just didn’t seem to work at all. I had emailed you previously and as you said then, it is about being patient, to give the larvae time, but they really made no discernible difference to my aphid problem (concentrated on one plant) and no ladybirds have emerged at all. As I had said in my email, I wasn’t even sure many live larvae were in the pack I received - I could only see a very small number. I followed all advice as to how to release them to the letter, but sadly on this occasion with absolutely no results and I continue to have significant problems. I had more success wiping aphids off with my hands and a little water, which had been my method of control before trying the larvae! Maybe mature ladybirds are better, but not sure I’d try again.”

“I love them, magnificent wee beasties! They are incredibly quick to grow and get started straight away. I had so many greenfly I couldn't believe it. They are now under much better control with these voracious predators. I will be having lots more next year.”

“I was disappointed that for the second time/year there were very few larvea, sent, certainly well below 20, so what they could do was limited.”

“My order arrived on time and in good condition. I have this last week seen adult ladybirds on my plants for the first time. I was unsure about how I felt about ordering live creatures through the post but they were all alive and moving around when they arrived. I will always try and encourage plants/habits in my garden for them to be around naturally in the future.”

“Sadly, I have not seen a single ladybird appear following the introduction of 200 larvae. We do have ants around, so I'm wondering if this is the problem. I also wonder whether it would have been better to buy adult ladybirds.”
