LADY BUG/LADY BEETLE: Joy of Living

Brightly colored red with black spots, Lady Bugs are easily noticed. Since They eat pests, many farmers and gardeners have encouraged Them to thrive where ever they have found Lady Bugs. Considered to be good luck, Lady Bugs have, many times, saved crops from certain disaster.

Their bright patterns of black and orange, red, or yellow serve as a warning to predators, since Lady Bugs have an unpleasant taste. Lady Bugs have other defenses as well. When threatened, They bleed blood from their leg joints. This blood contains an unpleasant substance that repels Birds and Ants.

These brightly colored Beetles go about their business, not worrying about potential predators. Lady Bugs teach how to stop worrying and to love life.
