It is easy to keep lady bugs alive in a jar :)

Get 1 or 2 raisins. Soak them in water for about 5 minutes. Then blot them dry on a paper towel and cut them in half and drop them into the ladybug jar. This should keep your ladybugs fed for about a week. If and when the raisins disappear, put one more in as before. If you have plant leaves with aphids on them, you can put these into it ;)

Ladybugs love to eat aphids as the other people told you before ;)

You need to give them water to drink too but don't overwater! You can use a little piece of cotton and keep it moist. If you see fog, condensation, or water droplets form on the sides of the jar, do not add any water until it's dried up.

How do you keep a raccoon out of a snail jar?

Raccoons are pretty creative. Keep a lid on the jar (with holes in it for air) and keep the jar itself in a tight-fitting box, so that the raccoon can't get to the jar to break it. Nail the box to a table so they can't move the box. That ought to get it.

Can ladybugs live in a jar?

Yes it is okay to keep ladybirds in a jar. As long as the jar is big enough. First get a jar a jam jar will do. Go outside and find one or more ladybirds (i have 6). Fill the jar with one stone and 2 dandilion leaves aswell as 2 or 3 drops of water so your ladybird doesn't dehidrate. Put you ladybird(s) in the jar. You can also add flowers in as ladybirds love them. Your ladybird may try to escape if it does try to let it go and find another one. Proper ladybird food is half a raisan a day. For the jars lid use a circular peice of paper and rap it round the top of the jar secure it on with a hair bobble or elastic band. use a folk to put a few holes in the top so he/she can breathe.
