Last year 2015 I reared over 300 Monarch from collected ova and larva. This season has not been good. We had large hail twice in our area. I have reared about 10% of what I did last season. ND does way too much mosquitoe spraying, too much mowing and spraying along highways and county road ditches are sprayed for weeds. I wished ND practices would change not only for the monarchs but for all insects so we don't loose our songbirds because there is not the right food source left.
