Axel Steiner<p>Oft wird bei mir nach der Larve vom Asiatischen <a href="https://nrw.social/tags/Marienk%C3%A4fer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Marienkäfer</span></a> (Harmonia axyridis) nachgefragt. Der Käfer wurde 2004 in D zur Schädlingsbekämpfung eingeführt. Interessanterweise wird an ihm geforscht, weil er - im Gegensatz zu heimischen Arten - gegen viele Krankheiten immun ist.

dasgrueneblatt<p>Wenn ihr so einen kleinen stacheligen Minidrachen seht, dann seid lieb zu ihm! Das sind Larven von Marienkäfern! 🐞</p><p>Die Larven fressen Unmengen Blattläuse. 😋Also wenn sie an einem total abwegigen Ort ist, könnt ihr sie vielleicht wohin bringen, wo Blattläuse sind. Sonst aber eher einfach in Ruhe lassen.</p><p>Die Larven können unterschiedliche Farben haben. Die da ist orange, es gibt auch rot und gelb und sogar blau. Und es kann mehr oder weniger Farbe dabei sein. Aber der Körper schaut immer ungefähr so aus. </p><p>Grundsätzlich sind natürlich alle Lebewesen "Nützlinge". Aber fertige Marienkäfer sind bei den Menschen besonders beliebt.
