Convergent lady beetle (Hippodamia convergens) is **** of the most common lady beetles native to North America. The bug is found in most agricultural fields, gardens, and grasslands and plays an important part in restoring the balance in the ecology of the world. These insects are said to be natural enemies of many insects and even the convergent lady beetle larvae take part in destroying the prey infesting the fields in the habitat.

The convergent lady beetle scientific name is Hippodamia convergens. This insect also acts as a biological control or pest control agent for pests like aphids. Aphids constitute the main diet for beetles. It has been seen that these beetles are more effective in the heat, so the biological control in the more humid and heat-induced environment for aphids is more preferable. The insect is found in crops like wheat, vegetables, orchard crops, greenhouse crops, and other crops attacked by the aphid pest.
