Someone here said they were expecting locusts (cicada) this year in my area.
Don't know if they are the 17 year kind or 11 year kind or something else.
Last time around they did plenty of damage. We have tent caterpillars almost
every year but have learned to cope with them but with cicadas I don't know
if there are any preventative measures to take. These things come in late
may and june as I remember. Anyone with info chime in.


Cicadas ar one of the gardening pleasures and sounds you should learn
to appreciate as part of a live and healthy garden.
