Magicicada periodical cicadas, members of Brood X, cluster on a plant at Fairland Recreational Park June 01, 2021 in Burtonsville, Maryland. Billions of periodical cicadas are emerging from the soil in the eastern United States and Midwest to molt, mate, lay eggs and die after living underground for 17 years.

Cicadas are swarming areas across the country including the Cincinnati area. This is due to Brood X, when they emerge from the ground every 17 years to mate. Police have recommended drivers keep their car windows closed for the immediate future.
I wonder if you can have the cicada listed at fault with the insurance company?
