Don;t let the size fool you.
Thats what I told my wife 19 years ago....and we're still married.
Sorry, IMO, ladybugs just dont do enough to control pest problems. If you rely on them, you will be dissapointed. Same with preying mantis. By the time you realize you'r lazy-ass predator insects have not cut the mustard, it will be too late and your plant will be overrun with pests. Use neem oil or insecticidal soap while vegging.
