    it also says that ladybugs are beneficial bugs do you recomend getting some and putting them on the plant?
     
  4. Ladybugs are beneficial because they eat the bugs that eat your plants! They won't eat any bugs close to their size (they eat the little ones you cant see), but they are good to have around if you gotta a lot of cash to spend on that kinda stuff. However, they are definitely not necessary.
