Now monarch butterflies are “functionally extinct in the wild” because glyphosate has been used to kill all the milkweed that grew alongside roads on their path from Mexico to the northern United States.
Kill all wild bees and no one can grow backyard gardens. They have to get “food” from megacorporations.
Lots of bees, bumblebees and wasps. Several wasps nests in ornamental crops around here ( almost no pesticide used. Costumers don't want plants they need to spray with chemicals. ).
They will recolonize easily as long as there remains large areas that don't get drenched in pesticides.
Lighthning bugs only live where there is no artificial light. They have massively receeded over the past 75 years. I have only seen them away from roads in rural areas and natural forests.
There are probably some goverment regulations that force them to do so.
Abandonned fields are full of milkweeds.
There is one ornamental milkweed species that make bright orange flowers. Hopefully more people plant those.
Not to my knowledge. My city has remained the same size for about 30 years now, and I’m in a relatively rural area overall.
>I think most insect loss people are noticing is just because most people live near metropolitan sprawl hellscapes.
Could be.
