    Are there any ways to attract ladybugs such as a certain color, flower or scent?

    Question #7343. Asked by Becky.

    They like bright flowers and aphids.

    Ladybugs feed on soft-bodied insects such as aphids, scale insects, and other insects that are harmful to plants. You can encourage ladybugs to stay in your garden by providing ladybug houses. Ladybug houses serve as safe havens during the winter months and provide a place for ladybugs to lay their eggs and go through metamorphosis. In addition to providing ladybug houses, you can attract ladybugs by planting vector flowers such as angelica or dill or by allowing weeds such as dandelions, wild carrot, or yarrow. Wheast, a combination of whey and yeast, may be sprayed on plants to attract ladybugs. Use only selective pesticides.
