The 17 year cicadas are beginning to emerge. These noisy, red-eyed insects can cause damage to young tree stems, emerge as adults every 17 years. There are as many as 12 broods of the pest, but Brood X, which emerges this year is the largest. By late June, the adult cicadas will have mated, laid their eggs and died.
