Apart from being a joy to watch, ladybirds are extremely useful creatures. An adult ladybird eats about 100 aphids per day, which is a good reason to make it them comfortable in your garden. The ladybird house is designed to allow ladybirds to shelter whilst keeping out other likely inhabitants or predators and that ladybirds can accessit easily. Ladybirds often hibernate in a group together and it is advisable to put some leaves or a corrugated cardboard roll inside to make them feel at home. Also frozen ladybird larvae can be put into this house for biological control of aphids.
