I believe this is a ladybird beetle? Are they beneficial or not? They're rather scary looking!! Haha

If it helps, I had an afid infestation on my cucumbers a little while ago and some pickleworm on my squash....maybe they're beneficial and eating up the bad guys? Please help me Identify it and give me some insight! (: thanks!
