What is the importance of ladybugs?

Ladybugs eat other little insects called aphids, which live on leaves and stems of plants and suck juices from them. Losing juices from inside weakens the plants. So gardeners are always glad to have ladybugs to get rid of aphids. Some people even buy packages of ladybugs to put in their gardens.
