Everything You Need To Know About the Impending Cicada Invasion

What’s up with the 2024 cicada invasion? Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice learn all about cicadas and the multiple broods set to unleash this spring and summer with entomologist Jessica Ware. Why are they so noisy?
Learn why so many cicadas emerge all at once and about their life cycle. We explore th timbal organ and what makes for a really effective cicada mating call. What do they even do underground for 17 years? Jessica tells is about cicada larvae dropping down from trees and how human activities are impacting cicadas. Plus, learn why Neil has a two-year-old cicada in his freezer.

Yeah. They're loud and can damage fruit trees, but the bass love them. 😁

Here in Japan we have cicadas every Summer. It's one of the natural sounds of the season. In any Japanese movie or TV show, if they want to set the scene in Summer it will usually open with the sound of the cicadas singing...

@@Kube_Dog The idea that I have? They don't know it has been "17 years". Time will always be relative. Each surviving brood has been around long enough that some defined time span has become part of their ability to reproduce efficiently. This rate has been consistent enough that they evolved this cycle. I think of it in the same way that the gestation of a human is around 9 and a half months give or take. Putting aside differences between one type of life and another...why not longer? Why not shorter? This could be Thee Fitness Test deciding what lives and what dies. Those that are adaptable and fortunate enough to dial it in on the cycle that works for them and their competition... Maybe we are hitting one of the nails on its head when we say they are making their presence known during the time where we experience higher temperatures... In the end, this has been their way to exist. Behaviors that make them less likely to be exterminated by other species and environmental conditions. Agreeable, and performing so, over an exceptional period of time. Leading to this sort of thing. *shrugs* Brainstorming here, and very fun/wild to think about.

[@Wodensdsy]

I understand that EVERYONE hates Cicadas, but I personally love them. The sounds of them singing can lull me to deep sleep. As a child in Kentucky my siblings were HORRIFIED of them, but I used to let them crawl around on my shirt then gently put them back to a tree. I have a cicada tattoo on my left hand because of my adoration for them. Also my fave internet mystery is Cicada 3301!!!

[@HeatherMerrell]

They make a lovely symphony in tune with nature!!! I adore them also. They also call in the rain and sing loudly before a storm.

[@joanfregapane8683]

I also love them, as does my older daughter (now grown).

[@klis31]

Cicadas are COOL!! I have one tattooed on my inner forearm. Living in Phoenix until I was 15 (now 40), there were cicadas annually and the chorusing sound was comforting to me as a child. I miss that chorusing sound of the summer. Also, I’d collect the shells/exoskeletons that were shed and kept them in a jar. Judging by the comments section, not everyone hates cicadas after all. 😂 ❤

[@GizzyDillespee]

All the sudden you realize this terrible noise has been going on since who knows when, and it sounds like the alien mothership is hovering. It sounds not of this Earth. The reptilian ETs must eat SOMETHING, besides humans, right? Cicadas sound like the kind of things they'd eat.

[@HeatherMerrell]

The cicadas in the deep south make a lovely song all summer. And they call in the rain. I adore that sound. Sleepy southern songs. And I wish we had lighting bugs in large numbers. I've only seen one so far. Same with the whipperwill. They've gone and it's sad.

Also: Please don't try to poison the cicadas! We had an emergence in 2021 and it coincided with an absolutely horrific mysterious bird illness that affected songbirds. The best hypothesis was that uninformed people were using a ton of pesticides to get rid of the cicadas (this was during the darker days of covid so people were home and noticing the cicadas more than in other years, and also spending more time in their backyards). The birds went blind and then had seizures and bled... sometimes while their mates watched and freaked the eff out. It was the worst. So please, tell your neighbors: enjoy the cicadas, share the planet.

[@Kube_Dog]

Is that when Ben and Jerry's made an emergency delivery that saved Neil from starvation?

[@jonrutherford6852]

Re: outro -- Several years ago I worked in an office/lab separated from the only wilderness area -- only a couple of blocks square, but home to thousands of small creatures -- in our urban setting. Then bulldozers and men with chain saws demolished the entire habitat in a matter of hours. All those animals, insects, reptiles lost their habitat in one day's time. Of course it was in order to build more buildings while the city remained full of renewable structures sitting abandoned and rotting. I've never forgotten and never will and still feel grief.

My dog absolutely loves eating newly hatched cicadas.....last time we were camping during a swarm hatching (camping in Brown County, Indiana), and my dog was hardly interested in her dog food, as she was so full of cicadas. The cicadas were so numerous that they were literally a carpet of cicadas everywhere - simply stunning.

[@Shadow__133]

It's not just your dog. Some asian friends enjoy them and say they taste kind of earthy. If you sauté them, especially with chili oil and soy sauce, they make a pretty good complement to food like rice and noodles 🍜

I lived in Waukegan, Illinois in 1990 and had to go to Chicago to do a land survey and the cicadas was one of the coolest things I have ever seen.
