A survey of insects splattered on car numberplates in Kent has shown a 78% drop in the last decade. Tom remembers when the windscreen would be covered in dead bugs and the wipers made it worse. This was a citizen science project with members of the public counting bug deaths on their car numberplates. Tom was suspicious of this and carried out his own experiment. He drove around for an hour at a variety of speeds and urban and rural settings. At the end of the experiment Tom counted the dead bugs on his rear numberplate. Not one was found dead which proves that there a very few of these buggers in Essex. What's going on here guys. It's all over the news. |
