im just wondering, because in may of next year there is supposed to be a major cicada infestation in my area, and they are supposed to be so many that i can run out with a net and catch hundreds in one netful at a time. Maybe? i hope so, huge free food source! thanks for any information

I dunno...
I keep hearing them but I never see them.
They hide in the trees or something.

There was a dead one on my deck, I think the cat got it..It was HUGE. They may be too big.

I dont think they can... Theyre pretty chitinous, not soft like crix, roaches, etc. And i would really worry about parasitism from a wild food source.

BUT..im no expert by any means, so thats just my opinion.

Hope that helps,
Jamie
