Insect decline is one of the greatest challenges facing our society. As a result of the destruction of many natural habitats, bees, bumblebees, butterflies, beetles and the like find less and less food. As a consequence, they are barely able to fulfill their role as pollinators of wild and cultivated plants. This trend is increasingly noticeable in agricultural regions in particular.
