This was 5 years ago. This is cicada season now. I'm waiting for the Attack, May 22 2021. They are saying They are here!! He gave us very good information. This should be our cicada manual. Thank Uu.
its jun 5th, its been a few weeks of cicadas. Im enjoying the company. Your vid was really fun to watch. I like your down subdued delivery. Refreshing.. thumbs up
With having *FIVE EYES* , they still can't tell the difference between me and a tree.
They'll still try to stick there proboscis through my skin.
FACTS
Ray romano is such a great narrator
😂
Lol, I think he sounds just like Tandy from The Last Man On Earth. Great voice, truly! Very informative and well presented! Thanks! (Honeydew? No, HoneyDont... or no kisses 4 u)
LOL
I never thought I would find an informative and hilarious video on this subject, but Dan has proven me wrong, and that honey dews me off. Thanks Dan!
One time, there were, like, 3301 cicadas in my backyard. I thought I was chosen. Turned out no.

Were they Distantalna splendida? www.cicadamania.com/cicadas/cicada-3301-cicada-compared-to-distantalna-splendida/
We will find you
Acting on your best behavior.
Turn your back on Mother Nature.
I think Cicadas are so cool and unique.!
Fascinating. I'm in western NC and we're having cicadas everywhere ... brood 6, I believe.
Was anyone else mad at the fungus?
Very informative! And who knew Ray Romano was such an expert on cicadas!
Do moles eat them undrground?
Very informative - Thank you! I loved cicadas in my childhood, but now they're an annoying noise! One of my past cats like to eat them, (but invariable threw them up).
I tolerate them, but their noise makes it seem hotter weather than it actually is.
Always thought they were kind of cool insects, though!
Cool video. Thanks for sharing!
That sound so reminds me of SUMMER! as a child
Great video! I definitely laughed out loud a couple times😄
I love 'em too. Used to catch Cicada as a kid.
Chris Zeek me to id get a huge chorus of them and put them in a chair to play music for them, i figured i was returning the favor for them. i loved to let them crawl on me :)
THEY'RE HERE AGAIN!!!!! MAY 23, 2021 VIRGINIA AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Hello. I knew it was time them emerge (2020). Thanks for comical & informative video.
Wow great video. Very informative. I came here because I was curious about their function in nature. I think they are a bit like worms. Cicada mania! I love it 😂💗
I have found a few fungus infected cicadas from brood ten here in Ohio. I saw on the website, that one researcher is looking for examples so I emailed him.
My 7 year old has been pretending to be cicada researcher all morning. We even found a pretty white colored one! Thanks for the fun video!
Fun. Nicely done. Thanks!
Such fun! 👍+ new subbie here! Thank you! 🤗💞😊
I had to catch 8 just so I could get my granddaughter to see that they don't care, they do care but not the way she was thinking.
I got one to hold one dead but had to get them to see that life is a must for the eco system.
They mind their own business then I proceed to walk towards the forest they were in all over the trees and ground. My grandkids safely away in the Bay windows like waiting for be to disappear 😂😂 Overwhelming but delightful. I tried to take my younger daughter with me so she could see to come but mommy said no.
They literally walked around me and over top my boots.
I grew up on farmland next to the woods so I have plenty stories.
Love the noise at night
Here we go again 🤔
Yepperzzzzz 🎵🎶🎧🎶🎵
They are coming big time in early May of 2021.
They will be here just the same as they have for the last 25 years that I've known about them, every year.
This guy's actually pretty funny! lol nice vid
Great info, FYI just started the lawn mower and had a cicada land on me. 😂
Amazing, thank you.
We are currently under a cicada attack here in Cincinnati!!
Very interesting , Thank You
I told my friends to shut up when we were outside because the cicadas have waited 17 years to sing us their song 🤣
In 2004 when they emerged I had to make a delivery way out in the country. When I pulled up to their home, I honestly thought there was HEAVY CONSTRUCTION going on it the woods next to their house. When I got out of my car, the ground was moving and their house was completely encrusted with them. So creepy I couldn't drive fast enough to get out of there. I have never heard anything that loud.
They emerge every year.
This is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have seen the cicadas emerge 2 times.I am not happy that they will be coming up again.I saw one laying on my sidewalk a couple weeks ago in the early morning.I was surprised to see one already.
The "Bug-Guys" need to stop confusing the public. I see them and hear them emerge every year. People should know that Cicadas emerge every Spring all over the world and lay their eggs every year. Yes those that emerge are still ones that hatched from eggs laid 13yrs or 17yrs ago. Some years more adults survived and more eggs were laid than other years.
There's nothing mysterious about it. Think of it as Humans and Baby-Boomer eras due to an extremely bad Winter cycles or the 2020 Lockdowns that kept bored couples together for extended periods of time and will produce a Baby-Boom. 😆 😆
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT There are annual cicadas and periodical cicadas. Annual cicadas--guess what? They are annual. Periodical cicadas in the U.S. emerge on a 13-year or 17-year schedule. Sometimes a few are early or late by a year or so. Tell me what makes this confusing to "the public"?
@@robertburgett9592 You really have to ask? LOL!! It's the over-exaggerated excitement displayed for the SAME species of Cicadas that appear every year. From kids classrooms to Adults in company commissaries that see the images on tv, I see/hear the same (what? we see these every year) reactions. I have to explain that there's no "special" species that's just gonna pop up like relatives that ya only see once in 13 or 17yrs.
If you can't understand that (and yes the stupid over-excitement was a huge BUST, AGAIN this year), then you're obviously educated far beyond your own intelligence.
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT you’re wrong. Magicicada septendecim (the 17 year cicada) are a different Genus & Species than the annual groups that appear. Same family but enough key characteristic differences that you can’t just say they are the same.
@@lineialquantum You're an idiot!! It doesn't matter what species they are, EXAMPLES OF ALL SPECIES EMERGE EVERY SINGLE YEAR!!!
"DONTFORGETTODRINKYOUROVALTINE" 😂😂😂
When the cicadas emerge, you'll want to have a copy of this book on hand: www.amazon.com/Cooking-Cicadas-R-Scott-Frothingham-ebook/dp/B00CV8HTP8
“Cooking with Cicadas is a great, light-hearted gift item”... and beyond the novelty aspect, this fun cook book includes legitimate
recipes for those adventurous souls who want to include "less than typical" ingredient in their diet.
This guide focuses on preparing cicadas for snacks, meals and desserts. High in protein and low in fat, this insect is featured in a variety of recipes from Italian to Moroccan and Asian to Mexican. Dishes like Cicada Frittata, Pasta a la Cicada, Cicada Curry, Cicada Tacos, Cicada Pad Thai and Caramel Cicada Crunch.
LOL!
🙄
setting outside listening to them right now. we always hang empty shells on our nose.
My family does that too lmao
open your windows and put cicada sounds on your stereo extremely loud and they'll swarm your house
you'll attract every cicada for 5 miles
2021 June - THEY'RE HERE in Northern VA!!! And THEY'RE NOT SLEEPING!! They're sneaky, too - they can land on you and you won't even feel them...until they crawl onto your neck...!
That was interesting & love the dry humor. I didn't know it was only the males that did the singing. Now, I'll be on the lookout for trees with brown leaves.
You should get together with ZeFrank and do a "True Facts About the Cicada" (and of course, one of them has to be named "David").
Great facts but very energy draining presentation wow!!
I agree. I have to make a new version.
They arrive every damn summer.. making all that noise
I must admit that their mating call lulls me to sleep at night. lol!
I love it.. them little fellers have rhythm
Those singing bugs slaves helped out a lot too...just listen when they are sneaking at night thru the field.
That is really really cool! How did you capture it that close?
They're timid at first.
terrific info, thanks; no wonder our raccoons are so large this year.
.
Be careful this fall we will have a massive influx of rabies due to the plentiful year they will have more offspring which will ultimately lead to an influx of rabies, because every rabies carrier will have more baby's this year.
The females damage the soft tips of the tree. It is a nest for the eggs. The eggs hatch and the larvae burrow into the stem. It will travel through the inside of the tree until it exists the roots underground.
Another fun fact, moles love to eat cicada larvae underground.
17 years underground
and arises in the middle of a lockdown
Miracle of HaShem!
I love them. Easy going, peaceful creatures.
poor things are prone to be getting eaten. In Pueblo Co they were huge and they were hanging out at a entrance of a stuco wall, then kids took joy in throwing a basketball ball or two. To see who can smash one 3 in a single shot.
They are strange but harmless and they are some what adorable
Brandon Lara they are adorable, i use to get a chorus of them and play music for them when i was 11 lol
They arent cute they are noisy and kinda creepy
@@smoke420chillandromeda8
They certainly are adorable. I call them the owls of insects. Other than there awful and ear shattering sound, they're right up there with praying mantises to me.
Awesome video. I found an injured one and I dunno what to feed it. I'm in qld Australia. What do you suggest?
I enjoyed this. Your funny Mr Cicada Mania Man!!!!!
I'm waiting for them on The Ohio River in 2021!
I LOVE CICADAS!!!!
Teya they also love you❤
There is a podcast called Cicada Madness! It's really good!
Is it fiction or non-fiction?
@@CicadaMania It is fiction and adds a fun twist to cicadas.
@@CicadaMania It is fiction.
So cicadas lay eggs in trees and then they emerge from the ground and become adults. I'm gonna assume they just fall out of the trees and dig into the ground. I dont think u mentioned it.
This is true. Because they're so tiny the fall doesn't hurt them.
Nice work on this video!
what about their old skin, is that any good ?
Small mammals will use them for nest materials. Scientists are also using them as a carbon source for supercapacitors. "Oxygen/phosphorus co-doped porous carbon from cicada slough as high-performance electrode material for supercapacitors.

I just learned so much about Cicada's. Thank you for that, its unfortunate that ive never seen one in my short 20 year life.
Michael Chavez your lucky
Nimbus 9 come to texas
I've heard them in Spain. Just for one night
Cool Video Guys!!! Thanks for the information.
Do they crossbreed between species and create hybrids or do the different species stay away from each other?
Sooo they’re sleeping underground!! Hahaha kidding, now we know what they’re really doing down there ~ thanks for the great education & information
I think I found a cicada...Bullhead City in Arizona!! I can send photo when I figure out how!
Lol!

Update: Cacadas still live! ..kinda.. Walked out side house here and sat down.. one was dinging hitting objects out side like a junebug champion.. after two failed attempts of flying the 1st one being a head slam into a bed room window and the 2nd one a hard hitting face plant to ground landing off of a clay plant pot ..it turned towards me and walked a lil forward about two feet away givin me a death stair like hey im about to fly right at your face i stood up n walked out of that intense situation before it did so and in my hasteful retreat stepped on another cacada bare foot which was probably just watching the show man it def let out a cacada death song that lasted like 7 seconds before passing rip lil dude ..
Cicada is a telepathic ability where you can use your Doula oblongata or your third eye to talk to people. Next cicada challenge get is close to Area 51 as you can we're going to actually take the ball of energy right off of Area 51
this very interesting to me
the cicadas in my yard have been here for 3 years they dont know they are supposed to leave for 17 years. I keep telling them but they dont listen
Angie West I hear mine every summer out here in the country!
Central Texas
😂
That's because the 17 year thing is a myth. They come out every summer.
Sorry for this apparently silly question, but periodical cicadas appear after 17 years only (I mean, during a row of 16 years there is not any periodical cicada flying) or every year there is a group of periodical cicadas that finish the "resting" period of 17 years? May someone reply to me? I'm well aware that other non-periodical species appear every year. If you visit Greece during Summer, in some places, and owing to the sound "pollution", you cannot hear your friends talk to each other. And more, if you try to speak somewhat loudly, the cicadas also increase the tone of "pollution" - Yes, they are really very rude insects...!!! Again, if you known how to clear my doubt, please do! Thank you.
I can’t believe they can get bigger then a refrigerator if they eat cake on the ground for a long time That just seems impossible!!!
5 eyes, gonna be an EXPENSIVE set of glasses for it.
Very tiny glasses. :)
Wouldn't that be cute? 😍
i bet youre excited for the sunmer!
Thanks
2020/2021 Humans are acting like the opposite sex. 🤔🤔🤔❗
I love spiders.
I see and hear them every year.
I love how you edited in the sounds of the cicadas.
i like cicadas they are cute little buzzy buggy bugs
If the 13yr and 17yr came up one yr when will both types come back together again?
No, but if the 17-year and 13-year types mate, in the areas where the brood overlaps, their offspring will either be 13 or 17 year. No telling which life-span length they'll end up with, but probably 13.
I have a bad phobia of most bugs especially cicadas, Ive never experienced this before but all the videos of them creep me out..Is their a smell they don't like. like peppermint?? someone suggested Sevin insecticide, but I heard that product harms the bees. I also considered spraying vinegar or ammonia everywhere...I haven't done any of these things and I live near a lot of trees..any advice? I'm scared they will get inside my house or garage.
They don't smell like anything to me -- until they die -- then they smell like rotting bacon. I recommend ignoring them.
I live up north in the US, and I have cicadas that arrive just about every year. They are black, and have very high pitched buzzing sounds. What kind are they? Would they drill me if I bugged them?
They come out every summer in southern Michigan. The 17 year thing is a myth.
ewwwww i would never eat them. That was interesting that they have the mercery in them, probably other stuff in them from the ground too from all these years.
agreed!!
Who would eat cicadas. That is just horrible. Glad they contain high levels of mercury. Hehehehehe
@@exploreyourweb many cultures and people eat insects. Bug based diets are very much eco friendly comparitive to meat
Are they in usa only? Will they be in Bermuda while I'm on vacation?
USA only.
I think, thanks to you, I am getting this worked out in my head. Tell me if I am wrong anyone as this took a minute to work out. The cicadas take 17 or 13 years to reach adulthood and they come up in broods 17 and 13 years old respectively every few years but each brood is numbered to indicate when they were born and went to ground. Is that it?
As for the cicada wee, its kids found that out because little kids put everything in their mouths and I hazard a guess that thats how you know what car trees taste like?
Did you know the fungus that grows in place of the abdomen of infected cicadas, is psychedelic?
For Magicicada it's an amphetamine, so stimulant, not a psychedelic. Magicicadas get infected by "Massospora cicadina". Other cicadas get infected by Massospora platypediae or Massospora levispora, which does produce a psychedelic (tryptamine, psilocybin). Here's the abstract from the paper: "Entomopathogenic fungi routinely kill their hosts before releasing infectious spores, but a few species keep insects alive while sporulating, which enhances dispersal. Transcriptomics- and metabolomics-based studies of entomopathogens with post-mortem dissemination from their parasitized hosts have unraveled infection processes and host responses. However, the mechanisms underlying active spore transmission by Entomophthoralean fungi in living insects remain elusive. Here we report the discovery, through metabolomics, of the plant-associated amphetamine, cathinone, in four Massospora cicadina-infected periodical cicada populations, and the mushroom-associated tryptamine, psilocybin, in annual cicadas infected with Massospora platypediae or Massospora levispora, which likely represent a single fungal species. The absence of some fungal enzymes necessary for cathinone and psilocybin biosynthesis along with the inability to detect intermediate metabolites or gene orthologs are consistent with possibly novel biosynthesis pathways in Massospora. The neurogenic activities of these compounds suggest the extended phenotype of Massospora that modifies cicada behavior to maximize dissemination is chemically-induced." www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6876628/
@@CicadaMania fascinating. Thank you.
They aren't allowing me to sleep.......I tried everything they are gods
Cicadas = New meaning to Big Date Night.
They’re not sleeping. Nope. They are not. Definitely not sleeping while underground.
Gotta get out of here before my brood comes out in 2020
I saw a bird trying to eat a scissor grinder on the ground and I saved it and put it on a tree
im literally so scared of these things
Why? They can't hurt you. They don't sting, they don't bite, and they don't transmit any known diseases.
4:32 = Cicada Pasta, Cicada Broccoli, Cicada Candy, Fried Cicada, Broiled Cicada, Sauteed Cicada... (Subtle Silence) I believe that's it, there's all the ways to cook Cicada...
It’s the shrimp of the sky
Surprised he didn't say they taste like chicken. Lol
I couldn't eat any. 2021 it's time.
I've heard they taste like pine and shrimp and have the feeling of chewing cardboard.
I also can’t believe that they come in billions and billions and billions!!! That just doesn’t seem real! And it would be scary for me!!!
Well done!
I keep seeing conflicting info, is this year 17 or what?
Yes and they are bearing a W which is often meaning of a war.I personally thing its a W cause were fighting a war or sort of a war.Terrorists in my book can't be classified to have real war.
It is. Some other broods experience 13 year cycles, and other species of cicadas have 2-19 year cycles but the Brood V cicadas in Ohio/WV/Pensy/Virginia have a 17 year cycle.
I live in one of those states. Can't wait till it's over.
Here toward southern Ohio we barely have any. Can't really hear it much.
Not sure what is up with that.
Christopher Harper Really? I live in southern Ohio and they are everywhere.
Can't wait for Brood XIX to reemerge.
I made a video on cicadas and now I'm going down the rabbit hole.
What about snipping their proboscis' with scissors; can they grow that back out? Not implying I'd ever do that (absolutely not), but just curious if it does get, say, snapped off. Suppose they just die.
It won't grow back. :)
Cicadas Ohio 2016
So cicadas help us from consuming the Mercury from the earth to keep us human beings healthy,thank you CICADA we need you.
omg i’m gonna cry
This is god feeding his birds and animals, amazing!
how is there eyesight? do they have bad occular vision?
It's swarm season in south east US, time to start carrying a tennis racket when I mow
Lee Fire I feel like that it is a harmless bug
