[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We used to call them lightning bugs. Too bad the chemicals have killed them off. What can we do to improve the situation so kids can enjoy them in the future? They really are magical.[/quote] All that's needed is for everyone to be ok with having a semi-weedy, imperfect yard. Broad spectrum pesticides for killing lawn grubs and other insects kill off the firefly larvae in the turf. Perfect yards = fewer/no fireflies We don't use lawn pesticides or herbicides, and we have tons of them. And a sorta-ugly yard. [/quote]
