Yesterday was the first time I noticed any in a long time.
A few months ago when I still lived in Brandenburg in Germany (I had to clean my windscreen regularly). Haven't had a single one in Baden-Württemberg. I wonder if the wine growers use more pesticides.
When I lived in England my windscreen was suspiciously empty too.
When I roadtrip my windshield get so fucking nasty every time I stop I have to clean it cause the windshield fluid isn’t enough to degunk everything
June bugs are already out here, and I went out last night. Got a bunch still splattered on the windshield rn.
Probably well over two decades ago or so.
That was the last time I owned a car.
I recently drove half a continent. Anyways, probably 10-20 years. Idk, I don't really remember it happening much except maybe when I was a young child
Is there a word missing in that question?
"Splashed" can mean to destroy mid flight I think
a suffix
Probably meant “smashed” instead of “splashed“.
Two days ago.
Few days ago. Went birding in a wetland conservation area. Tons of birds. Megatons of bugs.
I've been wondering the same. It's been years. I live in western Europe. Could be an example of evolution, insects that fly higher survive more often, or climate change, there's fewer insects about.
It used to be a big issue, now the biggest issue is bird poop and lice excretions.
