Forget global warming, we will all starve without the pollinators, where are they? Where are the flies? They are not in our houses, no insects splattered on the front of our vehicles either.
Go and look at your windscreen, you can drive for miles and next to nothing gets squashed. There are more dead badgers on the roadside than wasps on your screen.

Before Covid, you bought bug scrubbers to clean the front of your car and horrendous fly papers to hang from the ceiling. Since Covid, from butterflies to gnats, bees to mosquitos - they are all vanishing at an alarming rate.
If bats transmitted Covid and their staple diet is moths and insects, Covid is airborne. Have all the insects died of Covid? Let's have some better answers please!
