    Just copying my comment from another post about the same article:

    Even in the past 3 years there has been a noticeable decline. We moved 4 years ago to where we now live. The first spring and summer the place was buzzing with insects. We actually made the entire garden much more insect friendly but last year there were noticeably less than the previous year and this year it’s just dire. In april I walked around our back garden which was full with flowers and I had to stay in one spot for several minutes before I spotted the first bee. I am incredibly worried and depressed from this. It’s horrifying.
