Residents in some parts of Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia will experience an emergence of cicadas next month when the soil warms to 64 degrees and billions rise from the ground to mate. Fortunately, cicadas can’t chew so they don’t devour our plants and trees. If they manage to avoid predators long enough they suck up plant sap but not enough to any real damage.
Billions of cicadas will ascend upon the northeastern United States
