Yes, but think of how much more convenient life is for humans now and how many more varieties of junk food we have available.

I often wonder if we can send some back. While it wonโ€™t likely eliminate them here, perhaps it could be helpful. The concern I have is difference in pathogens, mites and other such things.

Even notice that I can sit on the patio in summer without swatting myself every few seconds.
Only seen one bumble bee ๐Ÿ this summer.

When I lived in the UK in the 1960s, we had to clean our car windshield every few days.

Same here in Canada in the 1970s.

Now, basically never. A rainstorm will take care of the few we get every few months.

And many birds need those bugs to survive.
