Is cicadas' singing, bothering people in your area?

[raccoon]

It’s in our news here in South Carolina that people in Newberry county were bothered by the noise and calling 911 about it.

I wonder, but I have no way of finding out if the people who called and who are bothered by it are transplants from other areas.
.
I don’t think cicadas are just restricted to the southern states. Are the cicadas very noisy in your area? Please indicate where you are.

1. Nope.

But the last 17 year invasion was a bust, so I'm not expecting much this year. (Ohio, and in the area that is supposed to be invaded)

4. Yea, same here in NY-21

I kept thinking we would get a bad invasion when they predicted it a few years back.

Crickets.

Or should I say: “no cicada’s”

2. We have them ;ater in the summer...

In late July - early August. They are loud but most people aren't concerned about them.

Montana.

3. Considering we got snow the other day

And are due for some today, here in the Northern New York area, I can report that the cicadas are not bothering us yet. 😀

If we get them, it probably won’t be until we celebrate Flag Day, the 4th, or later!

🤣🤣🤣

P.s. I’m hoping the people in South Carolina who called the cops were just not aware what the sounds were. Otherwise, if they did know, what did they expect the police to do about cicada singing?

5. They are not predicting any to come out in

my area. I was hoping they would because they are the best fishing bait in the world.

7. Two groups of Cicadas emerging--in Midwest, South and up the Eastern coast a bit. None in COLORADO, though

so, no. But I can't imagine their noise bothering me all that much. I've certainly experienced overwhelming numbers of crickets and katydids at night in the summer so...

I say, give some latitude to the cicadas and celebrate their very brief return.
