It’s a fact nobody wants bees around as they are considered dangerous. However, cicada killers are very docile to humans and pets. On the one hand, males are incapable of stinging. Females are really capable, but anyways they focus their attention on other cicadas rather than on you.

Do Not Confuse Them

About a year ago, murder hornets arrived in the United States. This very aggressive wasp is often confused with cicada killers. Still, cicada killers are harmful to humans.

Where To Find Them

Cicada killers are always looking for a home on the ground in areas of full sunlight near trees where cicadas live. They always build their nests underground. It might be seen as simple to the surface, but there is a lot of work below as they make sure the burrow is dug about a foot deep to place the cells for the eggs that will come.

Usually, their tunnels can cause damage to flower beds and lawns, and they multiply rapidly until quickly become overwhelming.
