    Little Garden Helpers

    Ladybugs are a kind of beetle. Many ladybugs are red or orange with black spots.

    Their bright colors send a message to birds. The message is, "Do not eat me. I taste bad!"

    Ladybugs eat tiny bugs called aphids. Aphids suck the juice out of plants and can hurt them. One ladybug can eat many aphids in a day. That is why people who grow gardens are happy to see ladybugs.

    In winter, many ladybugs huddle together in a safe spot. They stay close and rest there until spring.
