cicadas

⚫Will cicadas be bad in New Jersey this year? ⚫Cicadas will be bad in the summer 2024 ⚫It's the year of the cicadas. Yikes, it's going to be the year of the cicadas. Spring 2024 will bring two different kinds of cicadas. One will be a 13...

There are two specific broods of cicadas that emerge every 13 years and every 17 years. And this year, those two broods will be emerging at the same time by the billions.

There’s a huge number of Brood 19 cicadas that are getting ready to emerge in just a few months.

Why are so many people so quick to eat cicada bugs? Apparently, they taste darn good as a hard-serve ice cream, because the concoction sold out in minutes at one New Jersey ice cream shop.

Would you eat a Cicada Taco?

Do people actually eat Cicadas? Yes, they do, and here are a couple of ways people are eating these annoying bugs.

Other than emitting an unbearably loud mating call, these cicadas pose no threat to humans, and really have no interest. The general rule: If you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone.

We already told you about those 17 year periodical cicadas emerging this spring...BILLIONS of these bugs lie dormant for 17 years and then pop up though the ground like a horror movie. That is supposed to happen this May. Well hang onto your hat because apparently this influx of cicadas triggers other things to happen like an increase in pit vipers! PIT VIPERS!

Just when you wondered what could happen next...

You get up every morning, grab some breakfast, and then your off to work or school but all of the sudden you hear a loud screeching sound coming from the trees. These are insects known as cicadas and there are a couple reasons as to how and why they make such a pulsating sound.

Even though it's only around once every 17 years, we all know the unmistakable sound of the cicada. Will we be hearing it this year?

Am I the only one who hasn't seen one cicada since the announcement that the Great Cicada Invasion of 2013 was on the way?
