What to know about the historic cicada emergence in Chicago and Illinois
They’re loud, but they’re harmless. And some people even like to eat them.
Cicadas are beginning to emerge from the ground around Chicagoland and Illinois. Two broods will converge on the state in a historic emergence. They belong to Brood XIX, four species that appear every 13 years in the Southeast, and Brood XIII, three species that appear every 17 years in northern Illinois.
It will be the first time in 221 years that these two specific broods come above ground at the same time and in such proximity.
