The last time the periodical cicada brood known as Brood XIV was seen was 17 years ago—but the first documentation was back in 1634, when early settlers at the Plymouth Colony wrote about their “constant yelling noise.” Soon, the trillions of cicadas will once again emerge from the earth. After spending over a decade growing underground, these red-eyed insects will take to the open air and start looking for mates.

Some think they are nasty. In reality they are the Costco of the food web. This abundance of food available makes for stronger wildlife that feed on these bugs. Don’t kill them or spray them with pesticides. The cicadas are an integral part of the food web.

I couldn’t even imagine being an early settler with all the other trials and tribulations they had to go through, first experience the periodical cicadas. Surprised they didn’t think it was a bad omen.
