Did you know?

I consume 50+ aphids per day during peak summer season
My larvae live underground eating harmful root pests for 2 years
I'm often mistaken for a harmful beetle but I'm 100% beneficial
One soldier beetle family can clear 1,000 aphids from your garden weekly
I also eat cucumber beetles, caterpillars, and fly eggs
My orange and black colors warn predators I taste terrible (but I'm harmless to you)

The truth: I'm your garden's undercover bodyguard disguised as trouble.
