    Mr. FuzzyAss has given me a scratch to itch >:D I wonder though, I hear of talk about invasive species (I’m in NA), lanternflies, lady bugs, even cats and dogs.

    But like… should I be squishing these guys? Lanternflies yes (I think), but idk, there’s a chance FuzzyAss is native so…

    I wonder what the Top 3 are. I can’t remember the whole list lol

    You sound more informed than me, but that’s about where I’m at too lol. I couldn’t see where that infographic originally came from, but I’ve spent the day reading the Wikipedia articles on these guys. Supposedly, lady beetles from all over were introduced to kill aphid populations, to varying degrees of success. It ended up harming native populations more, ofc. I guess by being better at eating prey? (Skill issue?)

    Okay, that’s what I thought too. But then I came across this, do u think it might be a native lady beetle? Found on a reddit post (from image searching). I only ask since I’m getting more and more confused lol, I don’t see an M mark on my lil dude
