That's £1.67 per ladybird ... You could also try to plant (if you haven't yet) plants attracting predators such as buddleia, sedum, dill, angelica, nettles etc. Nettles in your garden is top at attracting ladybirds because the nettle aphids, which doesn't attack any other plants, attract the ladybirds. When you have an infestation you can move the ladybirds where you have a bad infestation. Also a nettle juice, made with water, which you spray as a bug killer is very good - it smells really bad, but it works. |
