If insects lay so many eggs why don't insects overrun the garden?

A) Most insects are quite small, making their presence in a garden or yard minimal.B) Many insects prey on the eggs, larvae (immatures), and adults of other species as well as their own (depending on food availability). Predation is not limited to other insects either; birds love to eat insects, I know for a fact cats will 'play' with larger insects, for the amusement factor. If not consumed, the dead carcass will not last long on most occasions due to other insects, etc. that rely on carcass' for food.C) Not all insects live above ground, making their presence less noticeable.hope that helps.
