Are lightning bugs becoming rare?
Posted by Brazos on 3/19/17 at 8:19 pm362
Summertime as a kid I can remember seeing hundreds of lightning bugs every night. Now it seems like I only see a few here and there. Has anyone else noticed a decline in them over the years?

You see a few, but they are definitely victims of mosquito abatement.
You don't see as many toads or rabbits either.

They have all but become extinct in BR, but when I lived in Nashville a few years ago, they are still everywhere

I saw them in Robert in the fall every evening at dusk.
Plenty of them.

I have a bunch of them in Covington (a mile from the city center).

I have land in the Ozarks, they're still abundant up there. A delight to watch, can't wait to move up there for good.

We saw quite a few in North Central when we lived there last year.

I've seen a dramatic drop in numbers from when I was a kid. Hell just the past few years. I actually thought about and asked the wife about it last summer.
