I have a bug that sounds like a rattlesnake

Question: Hello, I'm from Minnesota and have a bug in my yard that makes a noise that sounds like a rattlesnake. It goes all day and all night. If you have any idea of what it is, that would be most helpful.

Answer: I think what you may be hearing is a cicada. To learn more about cicadas, you can check out this page on Orkin.com. Call us for control services.
