Cicadas from Brood X fade as next 17 year cycle begins
In the mid Atlantic and Midwest, billions of 2004 Brood X cicadas die off by mid June while the next generation begins forming eggs in tree branches. Experts say nymphs will hatch in weeks and remain underground until 2021, with mortality high and predators common. Researchers map ranges in Ohio and Indiana as people prepare with netting for young saplings.
