apparently there are lots of ladybugs in Iowa, and the easiest place to find them is actually in autumn/cold months where they congregate on the sides of buildings or wander indoors. In the summer they look to be in natural areas out of doors.
if you are interested in finding ladybugs there is this online initiative to find and track native species ladybugs, whose habits are changing due to climate change and invasion of other species: www.lostladybug.org/
It is best to look in summer. Go to a field that has lush growth and has not been sprayed with pesticides. Ask permission of the owner, if necessary You can get more information here:www.lostladybug.org/
Thanks so much! My cat and I can't wait for spring to end!
You can buy Ladybugs! You get them from your local nursery if they have them or from Amazon for only $4.25. The last time I bought them, they all disappeared on me. I was upset about that until I realized that they had left my gardens because they didn't have anything to eat.
