Aphids, mealybugs and thrips in regard to pests and butterflies and lacewings in terms of beneficials are some of the other insects that ladybugs see throughout the day. Ladybugs flourish where arthropod pests are plentiful since the former constitute predators and the latter prey in feeding chains and food webs. Edibles, ornamentals and wildflowers tend to attract pollinators such as butterflies in their larval and mature stages and predators such as lacewings.
