 I can remember at least 3 "cicada years" in one place or another. I don't recall them landing on me, or really bothering me at all. What I remember most is the NOISE! Those things are LOUD! Since you have the woods adjacent to your house, you'll probably hear them all day, non-stop. I can remember cutting the grass, and being able to hear them over the noise of the lawn mower! Beware--your pups may decide to EAT cicadas! My family had a dog who would eat any that she could find.

I've done a lot of weeding, clearing out brush, and now planting azalea's and marigolds. I've seen A LOT of those exit holes that the cicada's make. If 200 of those little suckers come out of each hole I suspect the infestation is going to be right around my house!! LOL!! This could be interesting. Just as long as they stay off of all my new landscaping!! Always something interesting going on around here! When I get my pictures developed, I'll post pictures of how my little garden has grown. I still have a bunch of those WAVE petunia's to plant and another tray of marigolds. It's going to be colorful. It already is but it's going to be so pretty when the petunia's start blooming!

Azaleas are nice. I have a row of them along my walkway in front of the house. They were in full bloom a few days ago. Now the blossoms are thinning out a litte. As for the cicadas...just be prepared for the noise!
