Ladybirds are a sucking type of insect, and mainly feed on the sap of plants. If they chance on an aphid that has already sucked the sap and stored it, they think that is a good thing! They also cannibalize their fellow chrysalises.
It is neither. A ladybug is an insect.
It is both a bug and a beetle. Bettles are bugs. Only in a slang sense is a lady bug a bug. (Lady beetle is the most accurate name). In an entomological sense, bugs and beetles are both insects, but bugs are not beetles and beetles are not bugs.
The insect that lays orange eggs on ferns is likely to be a type of ladybug known as the orange ladybird (Halyzia sedecimguttata). These ladybirds are commonly found on ferns and their eggs can be orange in color. The larvae of these ladybirds feed on aphids and other small insects found on ferns.

Ladybugs will prey on any insect that is smaller than themselves. That is why they are favored by farmers- they eat the insects that are growing on the crops.
Because insect wings are delicate. Most of the beetles (to which ladybirds belong) have a hard protective cover over their wings, to protect them from damage as the insect moves. This Keratin covering is tough and weatherproof.
Although bees and ladybirds are both insects, there are many differences between them, such as: * Bees live in Hives, Ladybirds do not * Bees have stingers, Ladybirds have no sting, but they do bite * Bees feed on pollen and nectar, Ladybirds live on aphids and other small insects. * Bees live in colonies and are dependent of the social structure, Ladybirds are independent. Bees and ladybugs belong to completely different insect orders and are therefore about as different as crocodiles and hippopotamuses. Bees are hymenoptera, ladybugs are beetles.
Ladybirds are insects and have no collective noun of their own. You would use a general collective noun like a bunch, a group, a lot or indefinite pronouns like some, a few, etc.
