The eastern cicada killer is a large wasp that hunts cicadas, the loud insects that buzz in summer trees. It lives in the Eastern and Midwest United States and further south into Mexico and Central America. Females are not aggressive and rarely sting, so the sight of them flying over lawns is usually harmless.1

It digs nests in well-drained, sandy to loose clay soil, such as bare or grassy banks, berms and hills. People often meet it next to raised sidewalks, driveways and patio slabs, and in planters, window boxes, flower beds or under shrubs in full sun.1

Otú ị ga-esi mata ya

  • Large, at 1.5 to 5.0 cm long1
  • Hairy thorax with reddish and black areas1
  • Black to reddish brown abdomen marked with light yellow stripes1
  • Brownish wings1
  • Females are somewhat larger than males1

A na-agwakọkarị ya na: Its colours resemble some yellowjacket and hornet species, and European hornets are often mistaken for it. European hornets are about 3.5 cm long, so they are smaller than the largest cicada killers.1

The female's sting paralyses cicadas so that they can be stored as food for the young.1

Females are not aggressive and rarely sting unless they are grasped roughly, stepped on with bare feet, or caught in clothing. One author who was stung said the sting felt like not much more than a pinprick. Males cannot sting.1

Gịnị ka ọ na-eme mgbe ụjọ tụrụ ya?

Females sting only if handled roughly. Males may jab with a sharp spine on the tip of the abdomen if handled roughly, but they usually fly away when swatted at.1

Eziokwu

1

A female often carries a cicada up into a tree before flying to her burrow, because the cicada can weigh more than twice as much as she does.1

2

Males are seen in groups and may lock together in midair combat until one breaks away.1

3

Cicada killers may help trees by reducing the number of cicadas that feed on them.1

4

The parasitic velvet ant wasp, also called the cow-killer wasp, often lays its egg in cicada killer nest cells.1

5

A single burrow may eventually have 10 or more nest cells.1

Onye na-ekpughe akụkọ ụgha

Akụkọ ụgha: Male cicada killers are dangerous and will sting people.

Eziokwu: Males only grapple with other insects and cannot sting. They investigate things that move near them because they are looking for females.1
