They hang out, a few will climb onto my arm when I’m leaning over some but for the most part they stay inside :love_you_gesture:

These are the ones I bought but they have smaller counts if you don’t want so many. The weather is a bit hot right now so I’d be worried about getting them alive but that’s what this company does so I would think they’d overnight them or something… oh and they’re on sale right now I think it was 5 bucks

@MeEasy apparently keeping them in the containers in a fridge keeps them alive longer, it doesn’t kill them it like slows them down

Oh yeah I kept the ones I got in the fridge for over a week because I wanted to trim up all the bushes before putting them out

When they came they were all real lively but after an hr in the fridge I thought I killed em they looked dead but the instructions said to keep them in there until I was ready to release them.
In an indoor setting they will need food water and tiny bird house looking houses to live n breed more babies. When my brother was working in a nursery he had to build a bunch of the little houses and hang towels drenched in some kind of liquid, could have just been water but I can’t remember 4sure

When they are in the larvae stages they are super fierce. Lol definitely a good little beneficial to have around.
