I must make it clear, however, that it is one hundred percent true.

Until you have seen these bugs everywhere like you imagine a biblical plague, you don't know how serious this kind of story is for many of us.

In some areas, people have carried umbrellas to avoid these creatures and the steady stream of annoyance they unleash.

HOW MANY CICADAS ARE COMING?

We will answer the Alabama question after we explain keeping your mouth shut.

This year, the cicada is already causing crazy things in some parts of the country.

In one area, a popular theme park has to ISSUE THE STRANGE WARNING ON KEEPING MOUTHS CLOSED.

Now, that is something to be concerned about.

It never stops.

The cicada just keeps going and going and going.

You see, according to our local experts at Burnum-Hahn, BILLIONS, nearly a trillion (that's right, a TRILLION) loud, screeching cicadas will be waking up from their slumber.

I'm not gonna try to figure out all the brood this that and what number are we talking about this time?

The good news and the bad news approach is the best way to get ready for cicadas in Alabama this summer.

As these massive amounts of cicadas spread out across the USA, the bad news is that some will be in Alabama.

However, the good news? The experts assure us it will not be anywhere close to the kind of invasion we all experienced last year.

We briefly told you about another cicada problem in the past, and it is pretty awful.

It's the reality that another thing we learned the smart insect people had to do with a warning to look out for cicadas peeing from branches on trees.

What's the first thing you do after waking up from a long nap?

Well, imagine if you had been asleep for nearly two decades.

The insects spray a powerful jet of urine on anything around them, according to our friends in the bug business.

These dang bugs are hard to avoid when you start talking about BILLIONS of them.

A couple of years back, they were so loud in Northport during summer nights that you could hear them even with your TV or car radio blasting.

So, how harmful is this cicada pee?

According to those same experts, cicada pee is harmless.

I don't care! I still do not want any of it on me while I'm in my backyard. Although I don't want one flying in my mouth either!

They're coming, just not as many, so you better get ready.
