Ladybird plague? where are mine?

I found one believe it or not in my car yesterday the only other one I ve seen is at my sons garden, per ususal Madperth all the south seems to have them lol

None in this part of the South!

I've only seen one all summer!

I think they are hiding lfrom us lol might be the cold rainy wether we are having delaying them comming out I notice loads of butterflies especially white ones and lots of bees and hoverflies but alas no ladybirds in my garden.

Same here!

None to be seen here either...where are they all? We don't like the weather so why should they I suppose!!

Fairy nuff!

Poor you! Send some up here! How are you, apart from that?

Well now we know who's been hogging all the ladybugs! ;0)

I'm in Somerset - I've seen a few, but since when did a few become a plague??

Have a look at the link I've posted!

Ah! Chard is miles away, but I suppose they could make it to here....

I haven't seen a ladybird for years.
I remember one day ( it must have been sometime in the 70s ) there were many thousands of them in Tenby ( Pembrokeshire ) and you couldn't put your foot down between them. It was impossible to walk without stepping on them. I've never seen so many.

~we never have any either Hywel!Too wet I think!

We used to have lots but not now :o(

my sister in law lives near sheringham and the paths were full you could scoop them up in your hands

about to fill up my new composter :o)

Glad you're ok, Mookins! Have fun with the composter! I'm used to midges, but I hate them! Have to live on piriton!
You should be scooping them up & posting them to where they're needed! Lol!
How's Cody?

we have had the usual ladybirds but not the plague being northwest, i do remember when we did have it when one of my sons was little and we were on the sand dunes and he started screaming, ive never seen so many, before we got away poor son was covered and very frightened, soon got them off and in the car,

EEEWWW! That wouldn't have been nice for him!

bless thats scary for a lil one San
