Default Locusts

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 are harmless, they are nothing at all like the plague locust..
