As if the COVID-19 pandemic has not been difficult enough, 2020 has another "trick" in store for the residents of Southwest Virginia, parts of North Carolina, and West Virginia. This one will come in the form of millions and millions of noisy cicadas who are gradually emerging from their 17-year underground hibernation to spend the final few weeks of their lives mating and breeding. Dubbed Brood IX, the alien-like insects are expected to peak in mid-June, with as many as 1.5 million specimens emerging per acre. The visit, however, will be short-lived, and most will be gone by July.

graycat5년 이상Ew I hate cicadas. I remember when I was 6 and I would see dead cicada bodies everywhere during summer that I would plead to my mother to move somewhere else😂😂😂.

maira_2625년 이상OMG!!! I literally hate all bugs and when I saw the images I freaked! hope the people who are going through this must be in a really bad state:(- seat5년 이상I still can't believe that the sound of the Cicadas in North Carolina is as loud as a rock concert!! I found that on internet. Luckily I'm in France (I'm English) so the sound won't be too bad. I'm relieved!! But I'm sorry about the people who live in North Carolina.
