Cicadas

Nov 07, 2013 2 Replies

I have holes appearing all over the place away from trees. I always thought cicadas laid their eggs in tree bark and the nymph climbs down and buries itself in the ground nearby ready to climb back up the tree. But I planted a mandarin tree recently away from other trees, it now has a cicada shell on it,the tree has not been there long enough for the first part of the cycle. I do not know if all the holes away from trees are cicadas or coincidence and are giant spiders that appear the same time as cicadas ???


You might be surprised at how far the roots of a tree will reach--far beyond the extent of the canopy. A tree might even send a substantial root a very long way to reach a source of water or a rich pocket of soil.

This is most common insect found in garden, it found for better grass in garern.
