As I sit in my car in nearly 60 degree weather I see a host of flying insects fluttering about which brings a smile to my face. I smile because they are hatching prematurely, which only means an early death when the next deep freeze hits, and it will! Flying insects are a scourge to the earth and I would elect any president who offered concrete policies to eradicate them from the planet.

We can hire Mexicans to pollinate the flowers and trees.

We've been having a mild winter here and have had a few days with upper 60s weather so the mosquitoes have been coming out in force. Then we'll have one day that is much cooler and death's cold grip hits them all.


It's sweet, sweet revenge.

no we would just have to use different plants with different pollinators.

we are stupid to rely on bees for most of our plant pollination. we should diversify our crops to take into account other pollinators.

Crane flies are already lolloping into my door like the ungainly, bumbling retards that they are. I had to kill five of 'em with my keys last night before I could even get inside.

Where I live there are very few pest insects. Even less with wings.

Bat plague is going to make this summer insect heavy. They will most likely mutate into some form combination blood sucking carnivore and Croatian.

flying insects arent valuable just for pollination of crops.
what will bats and other small flying creatures eat when there are no more bugs?
and the creatures who eat them?

not to mention that no more bats means mo more organic batshit for cori to eat on his cherios.

Palmetto bugs will have me running out of the room screaming and I wouldn't mind the world being rid of all mosquitos (apart from whatever negative consequences may come.)

Bees, butterflies, and ladybugs can stay. happy
