How to attract ladybirds to the garden?

Plant dill, fennel, coriander, and marigold — their flat-topped flowers provide nectar that ladybirds need as adults. Avoid chemical insecticides that kill ladybirds and their eggs. Leave a shallow water dish with pebbles as a landing pad. Ladybirds are widely found across India and will colonise gardens that provide prey, shelter, and water.
