Cicadas lay their eggs in the ground, specifically in the branches of trees or shrubs, where they create small slits using their ovipositors. The female cicada deposits eggs into these slits, typically in groups, often choosing locations with healthy vegetation to ensure the larvae have adequate food sources upon hatching. After a few weeks, the eggs hatch, and the nymphs drop to the ground, burrowing into the soil to begin their life cycle underground.

These cicadas spend most of their lives underground as nymphs before emerging as adults to mate, lay eggs, and then die shortly after, a phenomenon that creates a significant impact on local ecosystems.
