Some species show up yearly, but the famous periodical cicadas appear every 13 or 17 years — and 2025 is a big year!
Q3: Are cicadas harmful to humans?
Not at all! They’re harmless to humans and pets. They don’t bite, sting, or cause damage — just noise pollution.
Q4: What do cicadas eat?
They sip tree sap, mainly from roots, using their straw-like mouths. They’re basically nature’s juice drinkers.
