Get ready for some loud buzzing this spring and summer - the 'Cicada-geddon' is upon us.

Two major cicada broods - one that hatches every 13 years and one that hatches every 17 years - will be emerging at the same time this year.

Cicadas typically begin hatching in late April and continue into early June.
