Will Bt kill lady bugs? I am trying to get rid of colorado potato bugs, but I dont want to kill the good bugs. Will Bt kill ants or aphids? I new to organics this year and want to stay that way.

What BT are you referring to? Usually when people refer to BT, it is the stuff that kills caterpillars which will not hurt the other critters you listed. Search the discussion board & web site for more answers.

I'm not familiar with that BT. I've never heard of a BT that kills ladybugs but that doesn't mean much. Maybe you can talk to the company that makes the product or the store selling it for more info.
