Answer:
Ladybugs (Coccinellids) are predators feeding aphids and scale insects - so meat, not salad is what they want. A few of the related families are herbivores, and can be very destructive agricultural pests (e.g., the Mexican bean beetle).
Nine spot ladybugs are rare because they aren't found on 5/6 of the earth. Only 5/6 of the earth is suitable for their survival. These ladybugs need a certain enviroment to hatch an egg. Actually, there are 9 species of basic ladybug and the nine-spot ladybugs have their own ladybug species! So if you could change how the ladybugs hatched, there would be a lot more around!
