Ladybird Breeding Kit - This kit contains everything you need to arise your own Ladybirds (Adalia Bipunctata), which can then be released in your garden. Ladybirds are one of the best known beneficial insects and are a welcome sight, as they help to control a range of pests including greenfly.Why not have a go at raising your own? Ideal for children, schools or as a unique gift. This Ladybird Breeding kit is designed to be reusable, and you can re-order larvae and repeat the whole process. Ladybird Larvae Refills are available between March and September. N.B. Ideal Gift - Each Ladybird Kit comes with voucher for the 1st lot of larvae included, so you can give the kits themselves as a gift and then the vouchers can be sent off anytime between March and September to receive the larvae. How does it work? Redeem your voucher online (or give us a call) & you will receive over 25 ladybird larvae, food & instructions. Transfer the larvae to the breeding chamber & add the food. The whole process of raising adult ladybirds from larvae takes around 30 days. The larvae will feed, grow & shed their skins 3 times before pupating. After a further 6 to 8 days, the adults emerge. At first the adults are yellow, but within a few hours their rear wings will harden & change to red. The adult ladybirds can then be studied for a few days before releasing them in your garden to munch on greenfly and other tasty bugs! N.B. The ladybird kit is designed to be reusable, and you can re-order ladybird larvae anytime between March and September and repeat the whole process. We only use NATIVE Adalia Bipunctata Ladybirds.

Died within a couple of days
After finally receiving some ladybirds as the first ones were lost in the post, they died after a couple of days. Spent nearly £30 on a plastic tub! My 5 year old is very disappointed

Didn't get a single ladybird :(
We received the kit with the larvae and did exactly what it said to do and not a single larvae went on to become a ladybird. Extremely disappointed, a lot of money for nothing at all.
