Hi all,

I have lots of these ladybird lookalike (except the colour). I would be wonderful if you could tell me what it is ? are these benefit or disaster ones.

Many thanks.

They look a lot like the nymph version of Harlequin bugs which used to mass on a lot of my plants when I lived in Victoria, although the ones which pestered me were pink in color. Peter Cundall from ABC Gardening recommends spraying them with soapy water.

Hi Phil,

Many thanks. Much appreciated. I did use soapy water to get rid of them. All gone.
