Ladybugs to the rescue!

We've started to discover little aphids on our tomato plants, and some sort of little white bugs in our lettuce. So, we swung by our garden store this weekend and picked up a container of ladybugs. It was the size of a pint of Ben and Jerry's - insert your own witty ladybug flavor here - and it said it contained 1,500 ladybugs!!!! We released them in the evening, per the instructions. Hopefully they'll take care of any pests that try to munch on our plants.
