Commenters share personal reports of monarch activity and challenges. One reports that oleander aphids have devastated local wild milkweed populations over the past 2-3 years, eliminating caterpillars from their property despite being on a known migration path.

“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.”
