- Abstract
The article offers information on a study related to prey preference by the Lady beetles, predators of aphids. It further informs that the pest management system reduces interspecies competition between native and non native lady beetles including Coccinella trifasciata (C. trifasciata) and Coccinella septempunctata (C. septempunctata) by providing non-overlapping prey preference. It presents charts describing the statistical results of the study involving the mean consumption of aphids.
