This has been a curious summer few insects around and the bees have disappeared too. It didn't use to be like this I had nets in all window I could have saved the money this year. Not that I'm fond of insects, but it is frightening should they disappear altogether. There is a small beehive in the backyard the hive it is still there but looks like a poorly built house drying out and pieces are falling off and is empty. Without insect here I include the pesky dipterous there will be no spring and no harvest. I blame the Chemicals used on the land, and inside houses it is poison; we must stop this attack, stop using chemical and accept a smaller but healthy harvest.
