So after you buy your ladybugs and release them...now what? One of the great things about using ladybugs is that once their food source is gone they will move away to find more. This basically means that when you address your own pest problems you will ultimately be helping out your neighbors and neighborhood. Think of dropping a rock in a pond, how the ripples spread out in ever widening circles.
This is where you doing your part to change the planet comes in. Because if you have aphids your neighbors probably do or will have them soon. As soon as your ladybugs have eaten all your aphids and their eggs, they will seek out the next closest food source...probably your neighbor and then their neighbor and their neighbor and so on.
Think of this, you now have taken care of your own infestation and set in motion an ever widening, systematic clearing ripple of pest control in your own corner of the world. Because you cared enough to buy ladybugs, and opted for a natural solution to your infestation, you also have cleared your neighbors infestation, and their neighbors etc., etc. This means that your neighbor, who may believe in pesticide use, won't have an infestation thereby won't have a need to purchase or use pesticides/poisons. This is why when you see your ladybugs fly away you will be smiling.
Hooray for mother earth! You did it, you made the choice to buy ladybugs and have now set in motion a small action to prevent the use of toxins and convert your neighborhood to a more organic approach to gardening.
