The Ladybug is a great boon for your garden, as it a voracious consumer of aphids, mealy bugs, chinch bugs, asparagus beetle larvae, thrips, whitefly, and mites, as well as many other soft-bodied insects and eggs. The Ladybug Loft offers a refuge for ladybugs; from there they can fly down on pests. This small, handcrafted home looks just like a birdhouse, but it works as a perch for ladybugs instead. It has a hand-shingled cypress roof and a hand painted ladybug on the front. You can easily use a lady bug pheromone within to attract them.
The Ladybug Loft is created by Heartwood, who uses only by-products of top furniture grade cypress, which is naturally rot-resistant. No other trees are cut to provide the wood for any Loft. Even the paint is industrial-grade non-toxic latex. The Ladybug Loft is available in a variety of colors. You can match the color of your favorite flower, or choose a color that complements the paint on your house. Your options include Yellow, Grey, Green, White and Red. The Loft dimensions are 6" deep, 8" wide and 10" tall. The Loft comes with a 36" stake, ready to attach.
