Declining animal and human birth rates and failing harvests are the problems affecting Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, there is a pestilence in Thebes. It is behaving as pestilences often do in ancient Greece: threatening the populations of all life forms and the production of crops. In ancient Greece, pestilences often are interpreted as divine pleasure over a human commission or omission in regard to the gods and their rules.

How does Oedipus cause problems in Thebes in 'Oedipus Rex'?
It is by not carrying out cleansing rituals and by not looking into his royal predecessor's death that Oedipus causes problems in Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Oedipus commits five murders before coming to Thebes. He does not go through mandatory purification procedures with which he is very familiar as a royal. He then finds out that he can marry the beautiful widowed Queen, whose husband's murder he does not look into even though, once again, he is a royal and knows about mandatory cleansing rituals. This is all very polluting for Thebes and Thebans.
