These were such a massive problem when I was a kid every yard filled one of those bag traps every week for the entire summer.
But then they went away and we had invasive stinkbugs. Then the stinkbugs got under control and we had invasive lanternflies. But I’m not seeing many of those this summer, either, which means the next wave is due any time now.
I’m afraid we’ll see less and less insects every summer until we all die of starvation or exposure
This is what you do. Take the Japanese tourists to Paris. They will be so disappointed they will tell their colony how bad it is and they might only comeback if you host the Beetle Olympic games.
Interesting times. There’s going to be a lot more invasive species as climate change enables the survival of creatures who otherwise wouldn’t.
