Can someone tell me where I can purchase lady bugs, greenlacewings and praying mantids in the Plano/Wylie area? I have a large variety of plants and a large variety of things eating them. Can you have all of these beneficials at the same time?

Yes, you can put them all out just be sure you have the pests that these bugs like to eat. May people put out ladybugs only to have the disappear because they don't have an aphid infestation. You can also look the main page of this website and click on "Organic Sources" then find retailers. I would call them since these items may not always be in stock.

Water your garden in the evening and put the lady bugs out just before dark.

Wells' Bros. Farm Store on Ave K b/w Spring Creek & Parker has most of the beneficials, but I'd call 1st to make sure. I think they'll order for you.
