NASC auction is OPEN!!

ladybug and nepenthes

somehow a ladybug made it into my lowland terrarium. i decided to let it hang around tho....they are useful for killing bugs that eat nepenthes correct? well with any luck hopefully it will lay eggs. :)
 
Ladybugs are carnivorous. They will only eat other insects. :)

I've found two in my Nepenthes' pitchers so far. They look really cool all dissolved!! :-))
 
Aphids is what you were thinking of. And yes, they are good for eating the aphids off of dews and neps, and feeding the plants.
 
excellent then the ladybug stays....my nepenthes are too small for pitchers as of yet so it can haphazardly go about as it pleases.
