Where do I get ladybugs from? I need predators and spiders would be nice too. Nowhere to gather them tho. Last nice insect I found in my area was a fucked up beetle
Must be a location thing. All the garden places around here (Seattle) have them most of the time, and my local hardware store has them a lot of the time.
Molbak’s (RIP) had them, McLendon hardware has them, Swanson’s has them. I mean garden shops (and probably nurseries now that I think about it), not usually indoor plant shops.

You can get ladybugs from most garden or even some hardware stores. If all else fails, https://www.naturesgoodguys.com/ is a great option
My experience is that most garden centers do not sell these, but occasionally they do. More reliable to find online.
I have a small pot, I want bugs but it wouldn’t fit much. I’ll check the local garden shop

I also live in Seattle. We must frequent different shops.

I believe you that Swanson’s has them because they’re huge, but I go there pretty often and have never actually seen them.
They were up by the registers last time I was there.
Guess my timing is off.
