Which population would increase if the insects were eliminated?

If insects were eliminated, populations of certain animals that rely on insects as a primary food source—such as birds, small mammals, and amphibians—might initially decrease due to the loss of food. However, some predators that are not dependent on insects, like larger mammals or certain Birds of Prey, could see an increase in their populations as competition decreases. Additionally, plants that rely on insect pollination could suffer, leading to declines in herbivores that depend on those plants, ultimately affecting entire ecosystems.
