Beneficial insects overwinter in gardens as adults or larvae. Protecting these predators means fewer pests when spring arrives.

• Preserve perennial bases; ladybugs cluster in plant crowns through winter.
• Leave grass clumps unmowed; lacewings shelter in dried vegetation.
• Keep stone borders intact; ground beetles hibernate beneath rocks.
• Maintain flower stalks; beneficial wasps rest in hollow stems.
• Avoid raking under shrubs; predatory insects burrow in undisturbed soil.
• Leave garden structures standing; assassin bugs overwinter in crevices.

A single ladybug can eat 5,000 aphids in its lifetime—most spent protecting your garden.
