Ladybugs are beloved beetles known for their bright red wing covers dotted with black spots—a warning coloration that tells predators they taste bad. These spotted insects are garden favorites because they feast voraciously on aphids and other crop-damaging pests, making them natural pest control. Across cultures, ladybugs symbolize good luck and protection.
