This is the largest wasp species in Nebraska. They are up to two inches long and are boldly marked with yellow stripes on a black body. Cicada killers are most abundant during midsummer when their prey, the cicada, is active. Cicada killer wasps create underground burrows, often around sidewalks, driveways and retaining walls.
