This afternoon, I came to a patch of grass and accidentally discovered a small insect. I saw its round body with a red shell on its back. There were seven small black spots on the shell, like seven beautiful black agates. There is a pair of very small tentacles on the head. What is this? Its so strange. I caught it and took it home.
I pinched the little bug gently, ah, what’s the smell, so unpleasant? I took a look at the little bug, eh, why did the little bug ooze yellow water? It couldn’t be dead, right? ?So, I found a branch and poked it. The little bug was frightened and flew up. I thought it was incredible, so I looked up relevant information online.
It turns out that the little bug is called the seven-spotted ladybug. It is a famous natural enemy of pests and specializes in preying on aphids. It can greatly reduce the damage caused by pests to trees, fruits and various crops, and is called "living pesticide".
When the seven-spotted ladybug is in danger, it will retract its feet into its shell and roll off the leaf to "play dead." Sometimes it secretes unpleasant-smelling yellow water, which is the yellow water I just saw. Yellow water is harmless to humans, but "enemies" will not dare to eat it if they smell the smell. The larvae of the seven-spotted ladybug are similar to centipedes, but smaller than centipedes. After reading this information, I suddenly realized that the seven-star ladybug is so smart and is still our friend.
This simple drawing of a seven-star ladybug has a beautiful picture, a simple composition, and is full of children’s whimsical ideas. It is very suitable for babies to learn!
