I found this cluster of eggs on the bottom of a White Widow leaf. I’m hoping it’s Ladybug eggs, not pest caterpillars, but my Google photo search mostly shows caterpillars of moths or butterflies. I have the leaf in a baggie right now. I don’t know if I should burn it or put it back
I’d check the bottom of every leaf on every plant you got. Find that sucker and all it eggs and hang it’s dead body on a spike as a warning to all them other bugs thinking about invading my domain.
After a female lays her eggs , they will hatch in between three and ten days, depending on ambient temperature. The larva will live and grow for about a month before it enters the pupal stage, which lasts about 15 days.
