Description:

I just adore Ladybugs, and I always see cute ladybug themed items everywhere I look, so I think that this cute little insect deserves to have some acknowledgement here in the swappers world! Here's some great facts about ladybugs that you may or may not have known:

FACTS: ~There are nearly 5,000 different kinds of ladybugs worldwide and 400 which live in North America. ~A female ladybug will lay more than 1000 eggs in her lifetime ~A ladybug beats its wings 85 times a second when it flies ~Ladybugs chew from side to side and not up and down like people do. ~ Ladybugs make a chemical that smells and tastes terrible so that birds and other predators won't eat them. ~If you squeeze a ladybug it will bite you, but the bite won't hurt. ~The spots on a ladybug fade as the ladybug gets older. ~Not all ladybugs are really ladies ~All ladybugs are born black ~Because Ladybugs eat lots of aphids and other pest insects, many gardeners and farmers use them for pest control instead of chemicals. ~Not all Ladybugs have spots. ~Ladybugs will clean themselves after a meal. ~Ladybugs come in many colors like pink, yellow, white, orange and black.

So, now you know a little bit more about this amazing little bug, let's get Swapping!!!
