So it's not like the entire state of Georgia eg is going to be blanketed by screaming horny insects. Or at least not these, annual cicadas are a thing here in the south and make noise too.
My family all lives in western Kentucky and one year when their brood emerged my aunt *called the police* because of all the noise. She was an aunt by marriage, not a blood relative, I just want to make that clear.
My grandfather gave her Hell about that until the day he died but then she never really liked our family and as a result he never liked her. Although him cackling "DID YOU THINK THEY WAS GONNA ARREST THEM BUGS" on a regular basis probably did not help.
Oh my god I nearly spit out my water.
