This isn’t actually a bad omen. It’s actually better this way as things that were sticking to windshields were pests on crops. So fewer is actually better for food stock. That’s kinda what the farmers are trying to head towards. There used to be a lot of insects. There were also many many shortages on farms as a result.
Complete nonsense. Mosquitoes, flies, bees and wasps are not pests on crops. Quite the opposite in fact, as they are all crucial for the pollination process.
it's the kind of thinking that led to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Pests_campaign
Mosquitoes and wasps in particular are a pest to livestock.
Grasshoppers are a pest to grain.
Another good news is we'll have plenty of jobs pollinating crops manually instead of those damn bugs.
