This year my wife and I are tearing out our back yard and seeding the entire area with native flowers and grass. To assuage my wife's fears, the fireflies losing one area temporarily should be more than offset by the long-term improvement to the area, right?
No pesticides, allow yard to go wild, if you can.
This set of photos makes me so happy, I love fireflies ❤️
