The message
from Eric G contains these words:

Where do you find ladybugs in the freezing snow and cold now here in
Canada? How do you release ladybugs so they stay on the plant in
question and not fly away somewhere else?


You'll find them hibernating in cracks and crevices - such as between a
window and its frame.

As long as there's food, they'll tend to stay on the plant. But be sure
your insecticides have worn off before you apply another insect...
