^^^ no depression...that would cost money so prolly not...but hey, at least they're not love bugs...ewww smell terrible squashed on your car, eats the paint off, and thanks to global warming are now swarming 3 times a year, in florida anyway...and too small for chocolate OR bacon...
I hate to change the subject, but you guys don't think they're going to spray the bejeezus out of Centeroo the camping areas?
I am guessing you have never seen a big swarm, they have to clean them up with snow shovels. 300 billion dead 1.5 inch long bugs is only slightly preferable to 300 billion living ones. That being said the worst of it should be over by Bonnaroo.

You guessed correctly. The only experience I have with swarms of cicadas are from a golf tournament awhile back on television.

They are in full force for about two weeks after hatching, and literally it is like driving around in the rain. Then they all have sex lay eggs die, and the same thing happens 13 years later.

Pesticides probably won't work. They don't chew on the trees just drink the sap so it would be pointless to even spray. So disgusting. There will be dead cicada bodies everywhere. Should be a nice surprise to all those who don't live here
Wolfaroo and I were talking about this the other night. We heard this god afwul noise and he said it was cicadas. I remembered the last 17 year cycle when I was a kid. I never saw swarms of them alive, but like Troo, I remember thousands of carcasses. If they're heavy on the farm, it'll be interesting.
If it was at 'roo it could have been tree frogs or yearly cicadas known commonly as a jar flies. We get them every year here and they make some really terrible noises.
The thing is there are seasonal ones that you get in small numbers, then there is the GREAT SOUTHERN BROOD.
Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright: the spiral light of Venus rising first and shining best, From the northwest corner of a brand-new crescent moon crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune

Does anyone who's been on here forever like me remember back in 2004 when we made the Cicadaroo shirts? I have a picture from when we all met up that year. I'll have to find and post it.
