This will be the second time I will have this ladybug featured in my post, while last time I caught them in the act and having a great time, this time I have the solitary ladybug with all the bad things that it had done to the leaf of the plant it was living and feeding on.
Yes, this is one of the ladybugs that unfortunately had a very different effect on the plant rather than the usual ladybug. We all know that ladybug is the friend of farmers as they feast on the aphids that suck the liquid of the plant, but this kind of ladybug is doing the opposite. It feeds on the leaf of the plant rather than being a ferocious carnivore and predator, it becomes a very bad pest to the plant.
You can see the damage and the holes it had caused on the leaf around this ladybug. the tiny bug, has a very big appetite to create such a damaged to the leaf. with those damages I believe that ti will hinder the growth of the plant, and if it is the crops that the farmer have planted, the the monetary issue will be big for the farmer to face.
