Buzzing into cicada season

For the first time in 200 years, two large groups of periodical cicadas are emerging at the same time in parts of the Midwest. You can travel to find them, but Eastern Iowans may have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the cicadas of Brood 13. ISU Entomologist Zach Schum joins the program to talk all things cicadas.

Guests :

• Zach Schumm , insect diagnostician, ISU Plant and Insect Diagnostic Clinic
