Did you know? “Ladybugs” aren’t actually true bugs at all. They’re beetles!🐞

There are more than 5,000 species of these insects, which are also known as ladybird beetles. Most are helpful to humans because they feed on plant pests. Ladybird beetles have chewing mouthparts that are well-suited for munching on their prey such as aphids and mealybugs.
