It would be guessing on our part to try to answer your question based on the information you gave. Start by getting the Texas Bug Book at your local bookstore of library. If you can't do that, give as accurate a description as you can detailing the parts of the bug so we can try to look it up. As far as I know, all ladybeetles (ladybugs) have the same physical characteristics so it probably a different kind of bug.

This the harlequine bettle. I found it in the Texas Bug Book. Organic Gardening Book listed it as pest for cabbage, so we refered back to the Bug Book. These books are great tools. THANK YOU and THANK Howard and Malcom. |
