You dont hate the US enough. This graphic does a good job of showing just how MUCH the US bombed.

What it doesnt do is show you the agent orange usage and defoliators used.

The US is and always has been the bad guy.

Abstract Phauda flammans Walker (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae) is one of the notorious defoliators on Ficus spp. trees. In order to avoid environmental pollution, potential biological control agents for P. flammans need to be investigated instead of chemical control. Four species of insect parasitoids were identified from P. flammans, including three hymenopteran species (i.e., Gotra octocinctus, Apanteles sp. and Eurytoma verticillata) and one dipteran species (i.e., Exorista yunnanica). Parasitoid ratios of G. octocinctus, Apanteles sp., Eu. verticillata and Ex. yunnanica were 7.2%, 4.2%, 1.6% and 0.9%. The four species were all larval endoparasitoids of P. flammans larvae. Time of cocoon (pupa) to adult, life span, major axis of cocoon and body length of females were all longer compared to males for G. octocinctus, Apanteles sp. and Ex. yunnanica. Based on the parasitoid ratios, the most abundant parasitoid species was G. octocinctus.

Western Spruce Budworm Moth (Choristoneura occidentalis) is the most destructive defoliator of coniferous forests in western North America. Severe defoliation by this moth can weaken trees, making them vulnerable to bark beetle attacks.

Insects in the vegetable garden » Colin Purrington's blog
Here are some photographs I took in June at my allotment in town. First up is a spotted cucumber beetle (Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi), perhaps the most common insect in my garden every year. In addition to being defoliators, the beetles are important transmitters of the Erwinia tracheiphila, which causes wilting. I think some of my […]
