, the lack of insects was thought to be from the vapors the oil and Corexit were producing. I have the results written down somewhere, but she did an experiment in the lab with just oil and then with various percentages of Corexit. It took a much smaller amount of Corexit to kill the insects than was present in the marsh. Much of these oil spill studies seem to be hush hush due to a gag order but in the end hopefully the findings will be shown to the public. The state agencies are/were performing studies on everything (fish, birds, shrimp, crabs, etc.) and then BP hired outside consultants to perform similar studies to show their data as well just in case there are conflicting results.
