I've lived here for years and never seen them. What's going on? I thought they were on the way out in the USA?
Did some pesticide get banned or something, did they evolve to deal with light pollution, what's up? I'm actually shocked, I can't believe I'm seeing them

    I went out a few weeks ago to try to see the meteor shower but I couldn't find any because there were so many fireflies out

    I live in NH and I've noticed many more than usual this season. In fact I was just outside and saw a bunch of them flashing in the dark around my yard. I can't recall seeing more than one or two before this year. I'm happy to have them around.

    I've noticed a lot more of them than usual and for a lot longer, too. I'm very happy about that.

    Saw some the other night even though it was fairly cool, oddly only in the front yard, not the back.

    Never seen one. I still don't believe they exist.
    I mean come on, a bug that literally glows? How is that not a CIA psyop?

    Their population numbers fluctuate based on rainfall amounts, natural predators, and yes, pesticide use.
    Sometimes there are so many it looks like christmas trees everywhere. I love them.
