Abstract
Excluding himself, one of man’s greatest competitors for food, clothing, and shelter are insects. Man probably first fought the insect in the fertile crescent when he plucked a handful of wild wheat seed, planted it, nursed it, and then harvested it for food. He’s still fighting the same insects on the same crops.
