Most of their lives they just sit on the roots and drain them as larvae. I’ve heard that they are more closely related to aphids than locusts/grasshoppers. I don’t know if they eat as adults.

Essentially nothing. They’ve spent 17 years sucking nutrients from roots. All they want to do during their short adult lives is have sex.

Plant fluids. They’re pretty much just above ground to reproduce.

They are queer for Southern Oaks and there are a hell lot less of those than last time they emerged. We will see. I don't see any nymphs on mine just yet, and I had 'em fairly bad last time.

They don’t eat. They are there to mate then die. The birds eat so any that they can barely fly.
