An 'explosion' in the number of Orange ladybirds, which feed on mildew, is thought to be due to the warmer damper conditions that now prevail in parts of England.
Doesn't having lots of Ladybirds mean you've got lots of aphids?

You do realise that they are much smaller than that in real life.
Real size is between 1 and 10 milimeters

If there are too many Ladybirds and not enough aphids,mealy grubs etc, then it can lead to humans being bitten.
