I drive two hours from West Georgia to Montgomery, AL every other day. Zero...zero bugs on the windshield. Also we live out in the country and in the last 3 years I have seen exactly one firefly. 20 years ago in the suburbs (closer into Atlanta) they were uncountable there were so many. Anecdotal but still a very weird feeling at night. Fire ants on the other hand seem to be doing just fine.
- bamboozled 8y agoCould killing tens of thousands of bugs (or more) per vehicle be contributing to the decline in numbers at all ? There are a crazy amount of bugs on earth I get it but still, this surely has to have an impact. People talk about having their car totally caked in bugs at one time etc, given other environmental stressors it’s not going to help if healty populations are exterminated en masse.
