Cicada maps show where the noisy insects will emerge in the U.S. this spring
CBSN
Cicadas are poised to return at some point in the spring of 2025, potentially bringing billions of bugs to neighborhoods across the eastern United States.
The group of cicadas set to appear has been labeled Brood XIV. Emerging once every 17 years, Brood XIV is the second-largest group of periodical cicadas — which rise from underground en masse — and will be the only group this spring. That means there will likely be fewer cicadas above ground than there were in 2024, when multiple broods of cicadas emerged at the same time.
