pine sawyer beetles will bite but are not particularly eager to do so. adult cicadas are not capable of biting and the larvae live underground

In my country that's called a cicada.
Harmless but very loud on a hot summer day when a few thousand of them are buzzing away.
They also leave their old shells everywhere

>Are they aggressive?

Considering they're absolutely everywhere in the late summer and you've only ever seen this one, no.

You've most definitely heard them before though:

There's a thread like this everyday. How have so many people never seen a cicada?

Sheltered and ignorant cityfolk who have never set foot into nature and only know animals from overblown "documentaries" that portray everything as a venomous killing machine.
