What is the ladybug's lifespan in the wild?Updated 4 months ago

Ladybugs are a long-lived insect, they can survive 2-3 years in the wild! The length of their lives is based on weather, if they can find enough food, and if they can avoid predators like birds and frogs. Ladybugs also have a few tricks up their sleeves to protect them. Their bright colors warn predators that they taste bad, and if a predator doesn't heed that warning, the ladybug secretes a foul smelling substance that will hopefully make the predator spit them right out!
