Hopefully you have no bugs, in which case your lady friend will unfortunately die........sorry to bear bad news.

Ladybugs eat mites, and aphids and such.. they are a good thing...no they will not hurt your babies.
will the ladybugs hang around or just take off to somewhere else if you deposit them near the plant because my grow shop sells the ladybugs by the thousand, maybe they would be a good investment? oh yeah he also sells preying mantis eggs what good are they? and will they hang around?
the ladybugs will hang around until their food supply is exhausted, then they will leave.
Im thinking about using lady bugs but i dont think i need that many of them for such a small area.
I found this lot of 1500 on ebay for less then $14.00 is that about the best deal for a small lot?

What do you guys think about using them is it worth it?
Ladybugs that are store bought are born with a "silver spoon", so to speak, in their mouths. They don't know what it's like to have to hunt for food. Wild ladybugs however work great for ridding your plants of spider mites, aphids and others.... Not only will you have better results with wild ones, you'll save money and have fun doing it. Plus, who is going to have to pick up and clean 1500 ladybug carcasus? The wild ones will even procreate in your grow space, if their food source is sustained long enough.... And you won't need that many either, two or three per medium size plant and five to ten for larger plants....
