Characteristics Ladybugs can vary in color from solid black with 2 red spots to solid orange or red, or they can have variable black spot patterns, sometimes with yellow or red spots. The two main body types are oval and round (hemispherical). Ladybugs can retract their head into their body like a turtle. The antennae of ladybugs are attached below the front part of the eyes. Ladybugs won't fly if the temperature is below 55 degrees Fahrenheit. If you squeeze a ladybug it will bite you, but the bite won't hurt. Ladybugs make a chemical that smells and tastes bad so that birds and other predators won't eat them. The spots on a ladybug will fade as the ladybug gets older
