Hope this is an acceptable contribution here. I’ve been converting areas of my Midwestern yard to native plant habitat for the past 2+ years. It’s sparkling with fireflies tonight while the surrounding grass yards are dark. Gives me a bit of a boost to get ready for tackling the sprouts of pokeweed and thistle tomorrow.

That’s awesome. I miss nights when the fireflies were so numerous the yard looked lit up. I always assumed light pollution had a lot to do with it. How big is your native plant habitat?
Side note, look at stand up weed pullers for the thistles. It keeps you far away from the spikes and pulls from the root. Although thistle flowers are some of my favorite blossoms.
