Yet another Hacker News

I’m on the monarch migration path and had wild milkweeds with monarch butterflies for a few years but the last 2-3 years oleander aphids exploded in population and I’ve seen a single caterpillar since.

Are there ways to mitigate that while not killing the monarchs or am I just shit out of luck?

I've replaced the top link with a different URL that's currently responding, and moved the submitted URL (https://blog.cwf-fcf.org/index.php/en/tiny-tracking-tags-for...) to the toptext. Thanks!

I release ladybugs every year and that seems to help. You can buy them online if they are hard to find locally.

It’s amazing that they can cross Lake Michigan without stopping. It looks like 60-70 miles. What a cool project.
