For the first time I saw a ladybird in my garden on the weekend!I am so pleased, as I know they are a welcome visitor! Great pic.

Neat pix. Good wax job, too. ;D

I could use a few of her kind on the eggplant covered with aphids.

Last year I sprayed me sambuca with a bug spray, it was covered in blackfly, every branch was just a wall of the things. After I sprayed I could have cried, among the blackfly was hundreds of ladybird larva (crocodiles) I vowed I would never spray again. This year the same infestation. I kept thinking I must spray with a soapy spray, I never got round to it as I was so busy in my back garden and lottie. Today I decided to tackle the problem. I could not believe my eyes, I could not see a single blackfly, all gone. Was it the wind and rain we have had here in the north. I doubt it, could it have been pheromones (not sure of the spelling) that the bush secreted I can't believe that the ladybirds were responsible alone. any comment would be welcome.
