The new protective headgear is a fashionable hat designed with mesh that fully protects the face and neck. The headgear comfortably protects the face and hair from the bugs.

YoursOnDemand.com, based in Northside, is a minority family-owned business created as an outlet for local creative endeavors.

"People's greatest discomfort with cicadas is when they get in their hair or fly near their face. Our new protective hats comfortably protect a person's hair and face so when they get to the office, they don't have to pick out the bugs," said Billay Brooks, co-owner.

"Sales have been stronger than Mother's Day, which is a big sales period for us. The T-Shirts are the hottest seller so far. We've had to double production to meet demand. We've even had internet purchases from customers in Hawaii and England," said Brooks.

YoursOnDemand.com cicada gear is currently at the Riddle Road Market in Clifton and online at http://yoursondemand.com.
