There are about 5,000 different kinds of ladybugs(瓢虫) in the world. They are also known as lady beetles or ladybird beetles. They come in many different colours and patterns, but the best-known in North America is the seven-spotted ladybug, with its shiny, red-and-black body.

In many cultures, ladybugs are thought to be good luck. Most people like them because they are pretty, lovely and do no harm to human beings. But farmers love them because they eat aphids and other plant-eating pests. One ladybug can eat up 5,000 insects in its lifetime!

Most ladybugs have dome-shaped bodies with six short legs. Depending on the kind, they can have spots, stripes, or nothing at all. Seven-spotted ladybugs are red or orange with three spots on each side and one in the middle. They have a black head. Ladybugs are colourful for a reason. They tell the enemy:“Eat something else! I taste terrible.”When threatened, they may play dead. Birds are ladybugs' main predators(捕食者), but they are also eaten by frogs, spiders, and dragonflies.

Ladybugs are happy in many different places,including grasslands,forests,

cities, suburbs, and along rivers. Seven-spotted ladybugs are native to Europe but were brought to North America in the mid-1900s.

Ladybugs are most active from spring until fall. When the weather turns cold, they look for a warm place to hibernate,such as in rotting logs,under rocks,or even inside houses. These hibernating places can have thousands of ladybugs.

The name “ladybug”was given by European farmers who prayed to the Virgin Mary when pests began eating their crops. After ladybugs came and wiped out the invading insects, the farmers named them “beetle of Our Lady”. This later was shortened to “lady beetle”and “ladybug”.
