You can order ladybugs online, (homedepot.ca, costco.ca, but all ship from the same place), ~$15 for 1000. I've done ~3,000 over the last 2 years without much luck. I do back on a large forest, so I have a feeling they might work better in a traditional yard with solid fences on all sides. Most of mine just take off.
