What types of candy do Lacto ovo vegetarians need to avoid?

You have to be careful and check the ingredients to things. Like, almost everything. Some common non-veg*n ingredients are:
Gelatin (animal bones, hooves, and connective tissue): found in jello, marshmallows, and some sweets, especially gummies and skittles.
Rennet (lining of a calves's stomach): found in cheeses and some other dairy products.
Lard (pig fat): found in baked goods and some cosmetics.
Chicken/beef/or other meat stock, broth, or bouillon (basically boiled-down, powderized meat): found in those little flavor packets, like in ramen noodles, and many other soups.
Here are some sites to help you determine weather or not an ingredient is veg*n-friendly:
