Cuckoo spit refers to the frothy substance produced by the nymphs of the froghopper insect, which is often seen on plants in late spring. The name is believed to derive from its appearance, which resembles the spittle of a cuckoo bird, or possibly from old associations with the cuckoo's arrival in spring, signaling the onset of warmer weather. Despite the name, there is no direct connection between the substance and the cuckoo bird itself.
