[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 50722, member: 84"] Honestly, I STILL have nitemares about the d amn things. [img]:surprise:[/img] I'll never forget my first experience with them. Melissa was three and Travis had just turned one. Most of that summer in Dayton the outside world was nothing but cicadas. [img]:nonono:[/img] The noise was deafening, and nearly drove me insane. If you dared to go outside you basically walked into a cloud of the disgusting things. (they aren't small by the way) Not to mention you were stepping on a carpet about 2 inches thick of their carcasses. There was no escape. That was 17 years ago as Travis will be 21 tomorrow. Now down where we are now, so far I haven't seen any. (thank you God) And as I recall husband's brother said they weren't bad down in this area 17 years ago. They saw some but nowhere near the horrendous amount we had up in Dayton. *shudder* So I'm hoping we won't have much if any to deal with. I swear, back where I lived in Illinois (central) no one's had to deal with them like this. To those who have been decended on..... Believe me, you have my deepest sympathies. (((hugs)))) [/QUOTE]
