Among the best
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Ice Plant Scale sightings, Los Angeles ranks 6th at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Melbourne (Australia, under 5%), Auckland (New Zealand, under 5%) and Sacramento (United States, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ice Plant Scale is recorded against all the insects logged in Los Angeles (9 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
