Maybe 30 years ago, Time magazine had a cover story titled, IIRC, "The
insects are coming." Said that eventually, they'd take over the
planet. They can mutate very quickly, within a couple of generations,
so they adapt to changes in the environment that eventually kill off
ostensibly "higher" forms of life.


That's maybe related to that old story that after a nuclear war the only
forms of life left would be cockroaches and Keith Richards.
