They should look into dragon flies.
Dragonflies can eat up to 100 mosquitoes/day
Dragonflies are some fearsome looking critters… Look up a book called “Cold War in a country garden” sometime. An absolutely terrifying science-fiction story about what it would be like for a human to be miniaturized in the world of insects.
Written around 1971 or thereabouts… I still have a paperback copy of it. An absolutely brilliant and horrifying science-fiction story
Interesting. Plus dragon flies are beautiful. When I first moved to Spokane, we had them on the lawn, but 12 years later you never see one. My neighbor swears that they are cloud seeding with chemicals that kill things.
I have no clue. Do you?
“Dragonflies can eat up to 100 mosquitoes/day.”
Young frogs eat them, too. And some birds. But they are pikers compared to dragonflies.
They should bring back the giant (2 foot wide) dragonflies of the Carboniferous era.
Dragon Flies and bats hardest hit
Bats can eat even more.
