Investigating this phenomenon, the woman learns that she has just experienced a phenomenon known as Resurgence.

When farmers grow crops on large scales, or even people grow some on a bit smaller scale within their own gardens, there is always a threat of insects attacking the crops. These deadly small destructive insects that destroy crops are called Pests. These insects not only attack crops, but also attack foods, livestock, etc.

So these pests are treated  through pest control sprays and medicines that are being showered on the crops. They can always come back, or revive themselves strongly after a lesser activity by them over a period of time, This increase after a period of little activity or occurrence is called as Resurgence.
