How long will a Cicada stay alive inside my car ?

[In_The_Wind]

It's driving my dog nuts!

6. The car is a 2001 Tracker.

11. HA!

5. Their lifespan is four to six weeks, and they will start to die off in late June into July.

The nymphs, however, will be hibernating and maturing for the next 17 years.

18. Yep, Just A Few Weeks

Being trapped in the car doesn't much matter -- the adult cicadas don't eat, and heat just makes them more active (unless it gets to the point where you couldn't sit down on the car seats).

7. Can you just let it out?

[PoliticAverse]

8. Maybe they like their dog and want to keep it. n/t

[soothsayer]

10. Haha

9. Both front windows are open.

I wish it would find a better home.

12. I remember the cicadas screaming in the trees while I was growing up in Texas.

Honestly, there should be a decibel level specific to cicadas, and it should be considered a risk factor for hearing loss...

13. Strange thing us people with Tenitus hear cicadas

24/7 365 days.

14. If it doesn't come with a warm breeze and the smell of honeysuckle,

you're being cheated...

17. If You Hold Your Ear To Louie Gohmert's Head You'll Hear Cicadas...

...all the time, not just every 17 years.

15. They look ferocious but they don't bite or sting. You can just pick it up if you can find it

[Ka-Dinh Oy]

16. Put a cat in the car for the night.

My friend put my cat in his car to get a mouse he could not get out. Just one night was all it took.

19. As Long As You Own The Car.

Cicada warranty expires when you sell the car.

20. Until you get to its destination.
