In the summer I walked by a hedge and found a ladybug larva. Brought her home and set her on my chilis. The next day all the aphids were gone from that area. Three larva had without a doubt feasted, but it seemed the rest of the aphids fled the scene.

Ladybugs are reckless, but their larva are walking killing machines.
