Default ladybug invasion begins...(article)

population crash. there was a thriving aphid population that wasnt being dented well
by our little red LB and the new LB went to town. I dont see "honey" or ants on my
peonies anymore, I guess the aphids are just background now. so without their prime
source of food the new LB crashed too. Ingrid

Strange.....one month into my annual ladybug infestation and I have had
only a few inside my home. I found a couple inside my son's mouth ( I
guess he was REALLY hungry or something because I thought they were
supposed to taste bad. LOL), but really I am quite pleased as I have
had no problems so far this season. When I open my screen door there
are maybe ten of them huddled together within the casing but they are
inactive. What could have happened? I don't know if these things are
related or not but my trees did not turn red this year either. Most of
the leaves (maple) are a greeny-yellow at best and most are still in
tact.....
