Benbrook locals are sounding the alarm on the silent fallout of chemical sprays and non-native landscaping.
With nearly 1 in 5 pollinators in North America now facing extinction, experts and neighbors alike are encouraging a shift toward native planting and chemical-free yard care.
Pesticide use may eliminate pests, but it also eradicates the insect life that birds and pollinators rely on. Without dragonflies, butterflies, and bees, our local ecosystem unravels, leaving more mosquitoes and fewer fireflies lighting up Texas nights.
The ask is simple: plant native, skip the sprays, and consider letting part of your yard grow wild. Small changes make a big difference for the environment we all share.
