WATER! Drowning the soil will deter cicada killers. If you see them entering their hole/ burrow, pour boiling water down into it to kill any in the burrow as well as kill the larvae awaiting next spring.Important to note that only females can sting( rarely do, they prefer to save their venom for cicada's) and also are the hunters; you might see them carrying a paralyzed cicada down into their burrow/hole. The males do not have a stinger- it is their sexual organ that extends from them, not a stinger.Most people refer to them as harmless, but scary looking, and annoying.
