Yes 10 or 15 years ago driving from Adelaide to Melbourne would require a halfway pit stop to manually clean the windscreen because the wipers weren't able to cope with all the bug guts. Last year i did it and didn't need to even use the wipers once.

Our insect loss is much more likely due to climate change than light pollution though due to our sparse population between the cities.




Is there agriculture in those areas? I've been assuming it's mostly insecticides, as my home country hasn't warmed up that much yet.
