No, 7 Up cannot be sprayed on plants for ladybugs to eat until aphids appear. Ladybugs meet their moisture requirements through dew and rain drops, not through sodas which can cause ladybug wings to glue together for about a week. Carnivorous ladybug species will feed upon one another if other garden insect pests are absent or few while herbivorous species will seek pollen grains.
