I've only counted 3 larvae on that honeysuckle, and today is the first time I've seen them, they have made a mess of that honey suckle. The yellow one, and most importantly,On my 3 plants I have around 20 ladybug larvae in various stages of development, really satisfying to watch them devour the little green gits.
No good, after reading this I went to check our honeysuckle but it looks pretty clear. I haven't been hit as bad I'm thinking but then again our garden has always had a rather ridiculous amount of ladybugs. Other than the stuff in the greenhouse and our roses the aphids are usually kept in check. I wish you luck on getting them under control.I've only counted 3 larvae on that honeysuckle, and today is the first time I've seen them, they have made a mess of that honey suckle.

As a pestie, I remember killing hoards of Harlequins back in the late 80's early 90's.It seems the harlequin ladybird has done in 15 years what it took the grey squirrel around 100 to achieve.
