Ladybugs

Acually, scientists found out, that when you hold a lady bug it lays eggs in your skin and when they hatch they burrow in your skin really deep and they suck your blood. SO NO THEY ARE NOT HARMLESS.

A bee, by a long way.

Bees fly at up to 17 miles per hour (27 kilometres per hour), ladybugs (ladybirds) fly at about 5 mph (8 kph).

As biological controls of plant pests is the use of ladybugs [Coccinellidae family] in organic farming and gardening. That means that they're used instead of artificial, chemical, commercial, conventional, synthetic pesticides. They eat such pests as aphids, mealybugs, mites, and scale insects. But in the process, and unlike many pesticides, they leave no toxic traces.

it is about 2 centimeters long.

Yes, all insects have internal organs. These organs are different from mammals because they must support different types of systems like the open circulatory system and the ability to breath through the exoskeleton.

They live forever in your heart!...even when they are gone, they are always looking down on you ;)

Ladybugs are either red or orange with black spots. The spots tell you how old the ladybug is. If a ladybug doesn't have any spots, you know that the ladybug hasn't turned a year old yet! Make sure you don't forget ash grey ladybugs, which have white shells and have yellow bodies. Remember, all ladybugs have black spots. This means that the ash grey ladybug has black spots!

Ladybugs are not poisonous. Sometime when ingest the can have toxic like effects on predators. This will teach predators to refrain from eating them similar to the foul taste of a monarch butterfly.

Ladybugs are egg-laying insects which originated in all of the continents except for Antarctica. Various species have been introduced from one continent to another. The term "ladybug" is a North American word; they tend to be known as "ladybirds" in Commonwealth countries such as the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, South Africa, New Zealand and India.

pink ladybugs are usually rare but if you saw one look it up before touching it because it might be poisonus!

well ladybugs do not swim but they are still a live when they are in the pool but they do swim with there shells on

It is a lady bird with Dark green shell and orange spots. It's scintific name is Orcus australasiae

They all come in many different sizes but the average size is about half the size of a United States dime.
a lady bird is the same thing as a lady bug. they are about big as a sunflower seed

there is approximately 0.22222222222222891 % protein in insects. i no because i live in the bush and only eat bugs! they are bloody scrumptius ay mate ! all the best with eating bugs u wierdo ! Geeesh! WTF??

Raisins. You feed them raisins. (I keep a lady bug in a plastic yougrt contaner)

It is neither. A ladybug is an insect.

a ladybug will live in a jar for as long as one to two years if its kept properly,ad no you may not feed ladybugs plant as they eat aphids. although you may be able to keep them alive by giving them moist paper towels and dehydrated fruits

During winter months ladybugs "overwinter" or hibernate. They seek shelter under rocks/plants and they group together in aggregates varying from a few ladybugs up to tens of thousands depending on the particular species of ladybug. Also to conserve energy they slow down their metabolic rate. http://flickr.com/photos/j-fish/2281357056/ http://www.eje.cz/scripts/viewabstract.php?abstract=1197 Based on this, do ladybugs find this time enjoyable? I would imagine they would prefer to eat and make more ladybugs. So no, lady bugs don't like the cold.

Both adults and larvae ladybugs, are known primarily as predators of aphids (plant lice), but they prey also on many other pests such as soft-scale insects, mealybugs, spider mites and eggs of the Colorado Potato Beetle and European Corn Borer. A few feed on plant and pollen mildews. One larva will eat about 400 medium-size aphids during its development to the pupal stage. An adult will eat about 300 medium-size aphids before it lays eggs. About three to ten aphids are eaten for each egg the beetle lays. More than 5,000 aphids may be eaten by a single adult in its lifetime. The lady beetle's huge appetite and reproductive capacity often allow it to rapidly clean out its prey.

many are red in coloration , which in nature is warning for their toxic/bad tasting excretion they have

Lar

At the bottom of their scrotum in-between their anal the thin line is very sensitive to men

Yes a ladybug is a decomposer

Probably because ladybug larvae eat the aphids and pests that weaken and kill the sunflower plant.
