Best Answer

Yes, black-spotted, yellow-bodied ladybugs can eat grass. The herbivorous insects in question carry the names 26-spotted (Henosepilachna vigintisexpunctata) and 28-spotted (Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata) ladybugs. The two ladybugs favor potato foliage even though crops as beans, pumpkins, radishes, spinach and turnips will be considered as food sources.
