You want bad, talk about mosquitos. Talk about ants in the house. Talk about cockroaches.

Cicadas are really nothing.
Depends on what you see as "bad" (tens of thousands sounds bad...now if it was tens of hundreds, that may not be as bad).

While my mother seemed quite calm about them, my friend was saying that you look up in the trees and it's like there are no leaves, just bugs. So, I suppose it's in the eye of the beholder.

It the volume wasn't so huge, I'd feel a bit better about the whole thing. Ah well...

And yeah, roaches and mosquitos are bad..never had ants though.
