Native ladybirds under threat | Quote: |
Fly Away Home
Everyone likes ladybirds, except for aphids and people who suffer from a fear of insects (entomophobia), and so we were sad to hear that our native ladybirds are under threat. Harlequin Ladybirds are an aggressive imported species which not only scoff all of our ladybirds' food, but are quite partial to eating the ladybirds themselves. A project to monitor the Harlequins has been set up and you can find out how to identify them or report sightings at www.harlequin-survey.org Keep 'em peeled.
