Imagine this spectacle in the middle of Manhattan: 720,000 ladybugs from Montana, on the attack.
The red-and-black creatures have purposely been released into the greenery of one of New York's biggest apartment complexes _ a sprawling 40-acres of high rises on the East Side. These normally gentle ladybugs have a mission: to harm and destroy pests infesting the neatly landscaped property.
The bugs from Bozeman arrived at the Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village complex Thursday afternoon, packed in boxes shipped by a natural gardening company.
