Please don't spray your yard for mosquitoes and avoid pesticides. You might think you're targeting one thing and you are not. In fact, pesticides can drift from ag fields as far as 15 feet, so there is an example of how those toxins are not containable.

The answer to this is B! Both Monarchs and American Painted Ladies migrate. Fun fact, the Monarch is the only North American butterfly that does a two-way migration. Eastern Tigers and other Swallowtail species overwinter in the pupa stage. Occasionally, some will stay in chrysalis for a few years

Today's topic is the importance of diversity. Pollinator habitats aren’t just for monarchs! By planting a diverse mix of native flowers, grasses, and shrubs, you create a thriving ecosystem that supports bees, butterflies, birds, and other beneficial wildlife.

People are scrambling to archive and update crucial datasets to ensure access, but concerns remain about the impact of limited access on environmental research and policy.
