Welcome to ecology, the science of "it depends". I can say this as an ecologist.

Here in Baltimore, insect populations of all kinds have crashed appallingly. No more large moths, butterflies, tree crickets, even field crickets, turn up where I live. We can still find them where they were always common, but where they were uncommon, they’re gone.

An outstanding review of the myriad ways insects are central to vertebrate survival. They appropriately call attention to how much we still don't know about these interactions and how to conserve them, but avoid (intentionally?) calling attention to the fact that we are included in 'vertebrates'!
