True Facts: 2 Large Broods Of Cicadas Are Set To Surface Simultaneously After More Than 200 Years | Mr. DingDing
Two large broods of cicadas in the Midwest and southeastern U.S. are set to surface simultaneously—something that hasn't happened in over 200 years. Sometime late this spring, under a cloak of darkness, a horde of bulbous-eyed insects will emerge from underground, where they’ve spent most of their lives feeding from the sap of tree roots.
They will scurry up the first trees they can find, leaving behind their exoskeletons as they molt, shedding old shells as they develop those trademark wings. The males will soon begin to emit a buzzing noise, before the female bugs them in a chorus of clicks—a cacophony of mating sounds that will swell in a matter of days.
