Hi! I would like to say thank you for offering this product. According to the description, this seems to be an excellent supplement for my lady beetles (they also need tiny dead soft bodied insects or eggs that they can eat & wont eat them) to eat along with a supplement. I was impressed that this item is organic, a power meal, & that the supplement contains proteins that is crucial for a lady beetles health. I was impressed that protein was listed at the top of the ingredients. I have 4 "very loved" lady beetles that I own. I always try to provide them the best but that can be challenging when resources for food are limited online for them. Protein especially being crucial for their health. They are not really viewed as "pets", however, with the right habitat & resources provided for their comfort & well being they make amazing, easy to care for little creatures. It is very interesting to observe them & their life. Lady beetles (related to ladybugs) have a longer lifespam then ladybugs. Believe it or not, they are also intelligent in their own way. Thank you again for providing a good supplement for them!
Definitely a power meal!

This attracts all kinds of beneficial insects and some pollinators! I placed this around my yard (following instructions) and saw what I believe were native bees, butterflies, ladybugs and other insects tasting it. I used it as a slurry on a sponge. It worked well.
more instructions

I'm going to put this out soon, but it would be helpful to have some more instruction on how early in the spring this should be used and how much rain it will tolerate after applied.
Disappointed
May 4, 2018 | By Ruth Akonom
I did 3 releases of lady bugs in my garden. Before each release I mixed the Good Bug Power Meal in my sprayer as directed. By the next day, all the ladybugs were gone. This happened 3 times. I was disappointed. I'm sorry I got the one lb. bag. I guess I'll try it again after the lacewings hatch. I wouldn't buy this again and cannot recommend it.
Beneficials ready to go

All my beneficials arrived in a timely manner, ladybugs and beetles seemed to be in good condition and ready to go to work. I would have preferred some detailed instructions on release on some items I was not familiar with. All in all, I would recommend Arbico products.
Owner Response: Thank you for your feedback! We will work to improve the release instructions for the beneficial insects. If you ever have questions, please call us at 1-800-827-2847!
