Cicadas primarily feed on the sap from trees and shrubs using their specialized mouthparts. They are particularly attracted to hardwood trees and shrubs, such as maple, oak, cherry, and dogwood. While they may not directly consume the foliage, the damage caused by their feeding can weaken the plants and make them more vulnerable to disease. Additionally, cicada nymphs feed on the roots of various plants while underground.
