150 Native Ladybugs (Hippodamia convergens)

The Convergent Lady Beetle (Hippodamia convergens) is a true workhorse of North American gardens — a broad-spectrum, generalist predator that acts as your natural cleanup crew. Unlike specialized predatory mites that target one specific pest, these lady beetles actively hunt a wide range of soft-bodied insects including aphids, soft scale, whiteflies, and more. If it’s slow-moving and edible, they’ll find it. We specifically offer Hippodamia convergens because it is native to North America. This matters. Native species are already adapted to your local climate, pest pressures, and environment — meaning better survival, better performance, and no unintended ecological impact. Unlike non-native species often sold in big box stores, these lady beetles integrate naturally into your garden or greenhouse without disrupting the ecosystem. Best For: Rapid knockdown of aphids and other soft-bodied pest populations Behavior: Active hunters — begin feeding almost immediately after release Use: Outdoor gardens, greenhouses, and larger grow spaces (not recommended for small enclosed grow tents)
