Here's why typical bugs in Denver are coming out previously this year

DENVER (BNN)-- As Denver starts to sneak into the 70s and 80s, it's a time for flowers to bloom, sweatshirts to be placed in storage and bees, moths and other common bugs to begin emerging from the cold winter season.

While there are still some traces of snow in the air, bugs are starting to come out in Denver, and according to the Butterfly Pavilion, the city is seeing them earlier than last year.

Denver is seeing bugs previously this year

When it comes to bugs appearing after the winter season, the timing is constantly a little various.

" For a lot of types, it's extremely depending on multiple aspects such as photoperiod, temperature level, basic weather, et cetera," said Michael Abante with the Butterfly Pavilion.

When it comes to this year in the Mile High City, the Butterfly Pavilion is seeing a lot of types earlier than in 2015.

In 2023, the structure said, "things were delayed," due to the fact that spring was cold and so damp. With the temperatures already hitting the 70s and 80s this April, the bugs are beginning to appear.

While you might have seen common bugs like bees and flies currently, it's not prime-time television for bugs right now.

When will the bugs come out?

As of mid-April, the pavilion stated it has actually currently seen insects and even a black swallowtail.

For typical bugs like bees and flies, the structure is seeing an increase in them popping out in mid-April, but there aren't a ton just.

For other common bugs like miller months, May through early June is prime time for them to emerge as they start migration on Colorado's high plains, according to the pavilion.
