Is It Affecting Butterfly Habitats?
There's a huge amount of pressure from landowners to put trees in the ground. As soon as the trees become established, or if the areas aren't suitably grazed, then scrub starts to encroach. And you're slowly losing that habitat. I've heard beekeepers down south are extremely worried about reintroduction there of nicotinoids - which is essentially an insecticide. Does that impact on butterflies, too? It does, but not the same extent.
