I have Cicada bees on my front porch, but I cannot find their nest. How can I get rid of them if I don't know where they are nesting?

    I think they nest in the ground. Usually you will find a fairly large hole on a mound, kind of looks like a fire ant mound.

    Cicadas are amazing insects that live almost their whole lives underground. When mature, they take wing to mate. What you are hearing is their mating 'call'. They are noisy in the summer but they are harmless.
