The uninvited guests I'm happy to keep inside my home

Ladybirds are usually considered a welcome sight in gardens, but they can be just as beneficial indoors, especially when it comes to protecting houseplants from aphids. Aphids are the unwelcome guests that can quickly turn a thriving indoor garden into a battleground. Common culprits include my beloved bird of paradise, yucca, spider plants, alocasia, calathea, lilies, and ferns, all of which are susceptible to these sap-sucking pests.
