THE CICADAS ARE COMING!
Source: University of Illinois Extension news release
URBANA, Ill. -- If you haven't heard the buzz, you will soon. Billions of periodical cicadas are coming, and University of Illinois Extension is sharing information to help track their moves before emergence.
"Historically speaking, 2024 is a big year for periodical cicadas in Illinois," says Ken Johnson, Extension horticulture educator serving Calhoun, Cass, Greene, Morgan, and Scott counties.
Periodical cicada broods XIII and XIX will be emerging throughout much of the state at the same time. Although exact times and locations will be varied, there will be cicadas.
"The simultaneous emergence of these broods is the first time since 1803, and it will not happen again until 2245," says Johnson. "It's an exciting time for those who enjoy insects and natural phenomena."
Although cicadas do not pose a threat to humans or pets, they will be heard. It may get loud depending on the geographic location and the number of cicadas around. According to the National Institutes of Health, calls of male cicadas can reach over 90 decibels, which is as loud as a lawnmower, motorcycle, or tractor.

Harvest USA Report
The Harvest USA Report began in 1997 when Custom Harvester Greg Ehrlich suggested that Howard Hale would be the perfect fit for the program that interviews those involved in harvesting the grain that feeds the world. Howard's son, Brian Hale produces the program with the help of lifetime listener and contributor and now host, David Woodruff from Grassy Lake, Alberta, Canada. Give David a call, he would love to talk with you!
