The cicada are coming.....THE CICADA ARE COMING!!!!

This seems to be the year of the cicada! I am currently listening to their alien-type song of constant whine that sounds more like an ever rolling and extremely busy highway. My West Highland White Terriers are gobbling them up and I fear for some of my trees that I've put out. My yard looks as though someone went around poking pinky-sized holes ALL around and these varmints are literally EVERYWHERE!

YES, this is the year of the cicada and although a bit exciting, the big picture leaves me wondering just how much damage they may cause.

Anyone else have this problem or noticed it?
