Tom O Dell says the return of the 17-year cicadas is an unusual wildlife event he hopes people can appreciate and not be too anxious about what will happen. He doesn t expect the cicadas to cause any significant damage and says they are no harm to humans as they don t bite or sting. He says he has seen a few around already but says the warm weather will cause that number to increase, and they will soon emerge in parts of southeastern Michigan and in a handful of other states in the eastern half of the country, after developing underground for 17 years.
