When aphids attacked our hoop house plants, we called in the Ladybug Brigade as a natural solution. Plants showed significant improvement in just two weeks.
Check out the improvement in the before and after pictures below.
While our ladybug research had us feeling optimistic, we were pleasantly surprised by how well and how quickly the Ladybug Brigade actually worked!
We were seeing signs of VICTORY in the war against the aphids. The plants looked so much healthier! Though there were still some aphids, the population was significantly reduced. The leaves were larger, more plentiful, and a deeper green color, and the plants were loaded with blossoms again!
We decided to call in reinforcement for our troops!
Check out the YouTube video to see before and after videos and to witness the joyful, toddler release of the new troops.
