An expert named Prof. Helen Roy explained that warmer temperatures have led to an increase in the number of ladybirds this year.

The warm weather has caused a rise in the population of aphids, which are the main food source for ladybirds.

Professor Tim Coulson from the University of Oxford highlighted the importance of appreciating these beneficial bugs, which are great at controlling aphids in plants.

During a cricket match between India and England at Lord's Cricket Ground, the presence of ladybirds and flying ants caused a momentary delay.

Despite causing some disruption, the increase in ladybird numbers should be viewed positively as they help maintain the ecological balance by preying on harmful insects.

Professor Roy suggested ways to support ladybirds, such as leaving shallow water dishes for them and letting aphids thrive in gardens to provide food for ladybirds.
