Life Cycle Of A Ladybug

Ladybugs, also called ladybirds because they can fly, and more properly know as ladybeetles, get their name from the reddish color of their exoskeleton.

The Virgin Mary was often depicted in a red cloak, and “lady” refers to her.

Over 5000 ladybug species live all over the world, and they are mostly considered beneficial insects because they feed on aphids and other insects that damage plants.
