The cicadas have all died here at our farm in Virginia, but they left a lot of tree leaf damage.  After researching, I found that established trees should survive, but newly planted ones may die.  But least I haven't seen any stink bugs lately.

I believe Cicadas only come out ever 10-15+ years and there are many kinds that surface from the underground in different parts of the country.

I've never experienced these little critters; however, I've lived in Utah my entire life.  Here in Southern Utah I don't have anything that bothers me except an occasional earwig in my apartment and those things are harmless.

When I lived up by the Great Salt Lake I had a problem with mosquitoes.  That was a nightmare.   :heart:
Have a great day!

Never faced a cicada at my home (only knats) but I can't stand lady bugs and stink bugs at my home... Lady bugs is all fine and all but the lady bug and stink bugs are so annoying when you have a lamp. They just keep on hitting it, making that zzzz sound (poor things die at the bowl after 10-15 hits from contact of the light bulb)... That's why I make special effort to close all the blinds at night so they don't attract anymore to come to my house

They've only just started up where I live.  I don't mind them, but I hate mosquitos.  On the other hand I love sitting on the patio and listening to the chorus of crickets.  I just hope they don't go inside because my kitties will hunt them down.  :cat:  We've stated our monsoon season so now we have the toad chorus at night as well.  Nature's symphony.  :peace: :heart:
