Cicadas have arrived... and they just keep coming!!

[@LarryWatkins-nf4uq]

UNBELIEVABLE.

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Yep! They sure are loud! All the grandkids are really loving catching them and wearing them! Thanks for watching!!

[@karunald]

They're awesome! You're fortunate

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed seeing them.

[@wesleyneat6101]

Grait bait for fishing

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

That's what everyone around here says.. I just say they can get PLENTY around my yard and farm for FREE!!!! Fishing aughta be reeeeeal good around here. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@debrapolenz2928]

That’s probably what they look like when they come out of their shells? I’m not really sure I’ve seen them before.

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Yes, it is. They are white and then after they begin to dry, they darken... then they fly! I've learned a lot about Cicadas. ha! THANK YOU for watching!!! I appreciate it!

[@ellendoyle1957]

As a kid here in Florida I would tie thread to cicadas and they would fly in circles around me. They don't bite and are harmless. Their shells are so cool too.

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

We've done that with June Bugs and my husband catches wood bees (with the white dot on their head). There's just something about these things... Now, I do think the shells are kinda cool cause they will stick to you clothes like a broach! I wore one to church on my dress when I was a kid and my Sunday School teacher made me take it outside... hahahaha! THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!!!

[@lauraharvey7424]

He just came out of his shell holy crap and you caught that on camera amazing 😂❤ one got in my car once and I nearly wrecked my brand new car when it started to make its noise lmao I was running around my car jumping and screaming and the sherriff didn’t even stop to see if I was ok lol❤

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Crazy right??? LOL That is exactly what I would do if one was in my car... they can be very loud for sure and if he's got some friends with him it can be deafening! I'm glad you're ok and did not have a wreck. You probably live in a small town like we do if the Sherriff didn't even stop to check on you! THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!!! I hope you subscribe!

[@maryharp3379]

I'm here in NW Louisiana and I haven't seen any yet. Where are you located at?

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

I'm in Middle Tennessee. 60 miles east of Nashville.

[@joycehaines2055]

Will they hurt you?

[@ellendoyle1957]

Harmless

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Only if you crash into something or trip while RUNNING away from them... otherwise they are harmless. I'm just a little bit afraid of them. They look creepy and they FEEL creepy when they land on you and crawl... mercy!! They sure do get your attention when they crash in to your face and hair! Normally I'm pretty tough against critters but these things are just ick... maybe 'cause there's so many of them??? I don't know. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING!!!!

[@johnwolf1475]

COMEON THEY ARE TOTALLY HARMELESS - MOVE TO THE CITY

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

yeah, I know they don't sting or bite. I know they are 'harmless" and all the things. BUT, they are creepy huge flying critters that crash into your face, land on you, pile up where you least need them like when you're trying to feed... when you're cruising on the tractor or the side by side and they crash into your face ... you will know it!! They also get stuck in your hair! Yep! They land and drown in your animals water which has to be cleaned out..... yeah, they are a lot. Hey but THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!!! I appreciate your comment!!

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

and why in the world would I ever want to move?? LOL LOVE where I am... And this is where I will die. Cicadas and all!

[@bloodhounder]

Man they are way bad up there! Hope you don't float away with all this rain!

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

It wouldn't hurt my feelings if they ALL floated away! LOL! Thank you for watching!!

[@Cutter-jx3xj]

You can pick them up and put them on you. They are TOTALLY harmless. U r dressed up like it's African bees😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

hahahahaa... yep! I know, I know... I just can't stand them or their creepy little legs and eyes and huge wings... after about 5 or 6 times of them smashing in my face... I was done!!! lol Thanks for watching!!!

[@debrapolenz2928]

I guess you wouldn’t wanna watch the channels that advise you had to eat them….ick!

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

uhm, nope! lol I did watch a local channel that had people eating chocolate covered cidadas. They'll just have to keep their "high protein" snack. They can have my portion! lol

[@johnwolf1475]

seriously they are doggy delicassy they are harmless

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Diffenately doggy delicassy!! And my birds are so fat around here and I think their baby birds are actually stronger and healthier too!!! Like I told another person, I realize they will not bite nor do they sting but I still do not like them. They are creeeeepy!! From Hatch to death they are creeepy! LOL THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!!!!

[@debrapolenz2928]

Harmless but gross, annoying and way too loud! Actually, they’re not harmless because they eat the foliage!

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Yes! Yes to all of it! I am blessed they are not in my garden! Thank you so much for watching!!

[@marciathom6708]

Flew in her mouth? May be God’s way telling her she talks too much. LOL

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

You're probably right!! THANKS FOR WATCHING!!

[@philipf.1352]

Those white ones just came out and haven't dried yet. Those aren't gonna hurt you. Lol

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

I figured that out after seeing them all over everywhere (eeeww)! Those are NOT pretty babies... hahaha! I know they don't bite or sting but they do cause me to run, dodge and dart and crash! LOL Thank you for watching!!!

[@debbieangel1909]

That looks to be a albino

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

It's a brand new BABY! They stretch their wings out to dry and then change colors. Did you notice it's eyes? Their eyes are that creepy red color from the beginning!! lol Thank you for watching!!

[@darlap2724]

I haven't seen any in my area in North Carolina yet. I dread cicadas when they come out. They give me the creeps.

[@LifeonHeltonCreekFarm]

Yes! Creepy! Best of luck to you! Thanks so much for watching!!!
