We introduced two batches of 300 ladybugs a couple weeks ago, and now we have a thriving ladybug lifecycle.

The larvae do most of the eating.

Eggs are hard to spot.

Any advice on the ants? The aphids do seem to be coming back strong every year, and I would guess ants are helping them overwinter.
Glad your tree made it!
