If you walk outside and notice any difference in the population or activity in your area, I would appreciate your input.

I don't see many ants in my area. I think the golf course workers and/or condo gardeners spray stuff that kills them all.
The spray has very little effect on the Argentine ants in the long term.
Have you noticed an increase or decrease in population in the past year or so?
This is a serious question.
Do you notice things like this?
If you dont, can you ask your neighbors?
I think they are spraying for roaches. The ants are just innocent bystanders.
It has gone from none to none. Is that an increase or a decrease?
Its very unusual to have no ants in southern California, especially in an area as well watered as a golf course.
So, none?
How long have you been in that location?
Over three years. We have mice, rabbits, lizards, coyotes, several varieties of birds, etc, but very few insects except flies feeding on garbage, and mayflies and junebugs in season. In the previous house, I was always at war with ants.

This appears to be happening in Southern California as well.

Demonstrators seeking to get Congress to declare a climate emergency superglued their hands to each other and blocked entrances to the Capitol from House office buildings Tuesday to disrupt scheduled votes.
The protesters from the group Extinction Rebellion formed human blockades in the tunnels to the Capitol from Rayburn and Cannon House buildings, which along with the connected Longworth building are where members have their offices.
Will Flagle, one of the protesters, said if Congress doesn’t act on climate change “there’s going to be increased drought,” “coral systems will be bleached,” and “there will be millions of climate refugees.”
Another protester, Stephen Leas, said without congressional action there will be “Old Testament-level natural disasters.”
Exctintion Rebellion wrote in its website: “This evening, July 23, we are significantly disrupting business-as-usual to force Congress to take the climate emergency seriously. The power of the people of the world, rising up in unison to shake off the broken systems that are leading us to destruction, is the only thing that can save us from climate catastrophe.”
Kaela Bamberger, media coordinator for Extinction Rebellion, said the protest was to encourage Congress to find that there is a climate emergency requiring “a massive-scale mobilization.”

Where's the video?
I would appreciate if, in your spare time, you people go out in the yard and flip over a log or a big rock and see if you see any ants.
