The monarchs just don't come through like they used to

I remember ten years ago my backyard in Kansas would be full of monarch butterflies every September. This year I saw maybe three the whole month. I planted milkweed along the fence line and it helped a little, but something bigger is going on. Anyone else notice the same thing where you live?

You said "monarchs just don't come through like they used to" and I think it's the pesticides killing all the milkweed along their migration path.

Wait, is that really the main reason they're disappearing @linda_wood?
