From Old World Christmas. Ladybugs received their name centuries ago in Europe. When farmers prayed to the Virgin Mary for help against aphids ruining their crops, their prayers were answered by the arrival of thousands of beetles. The bugs were named to honor Mary, “Our Lady,” and so they were called Ladybugs. This ladybug ornament is a great tribute to these plant protectors, with is red body, white spots and gold trim.
