I spotted two native ladybugs on my lemon tree today! I hope they eat all the scale bugs on it!

@otterX
Jealous! My key lime has a terrible case of scale with no ladybugs in sight.

@IPXFong oh no, sorry to hear. Scale bugs are hard to rid of, and so sticky! *calling ladybugs to your tree*

Since the ladybugs have been working on my citrus trees, I halted using the insecticidal soap and see how they do.
