@xris@ecoevo.social Really enjoyed the part describing your regrets. Lots of overlap with my regrets. And so many bee species!!!! LOVED the Pseudomalus auratus story. In re: Mosquito Dunks, at 8:59 you mention that syrphidae (and other flies) are killed. My understanding is that Bti kills mosquitoes, fungus gnats, and a few related groups but that syrphids and almost all other (aquatic) flies are fine.

@xris@ecoevo.social And 1000x your comment about mugwort-growing neighbors. "It's medicinal."

@colinpurrington@flipping.rocks Hey, there! I though it was all flies, but I probably misheard or misremembered.
