THAT makes a sound!??!?

[AlleyCat]

I just googled. Just count the number of chirps in 15 seconds and add 40, and you get the approximate temperature. Now, to find a hearing person to stand and listen to a cricket is another story...

If the hearing person is sweating, it's too hot; if the hearing person has goose bumps, it's too cold; if the hearing person does neither, it's just right.

If the hearing person goes nuts listening to the cricket chirp and stomps on it, well . . . you're on your own.

I like the sound of crickets. I think they're fine as long as they're not in the house.

There are some sound-less crickets. Those are used as food for the lizards. You could imagine how annoying they are if you keep them in a plastic container with food and shelter.

Ahh. Yes, indeed. I grew up with crickets chirping, so I quite like it.

They're OK outside; it's when there's one endless hidden one in the house that it gets annoying.

RIGHT?! I think any bug in the house is annoying, but hopping and flying things are the worst.

I used to make them make sounds to bother my sisters who would tease me

When I got new aids in college, i had so much fun driving people crazy wondering what that sound was!

The are some green fruit some tree about the size of a dwarf fruit tree. They grow in Kansas for sure.

You buy them here in the grocery store and put them in the basement to repel spiders and crickets in the autumn.

I think I've seen these things before.. I just can't remember where I saw them.

Some times the sound of crickets drive me crazy.

If there are tons and tons and tons, I don't like it as much, but four or five out in the back yard is nice.

I use to made my HA feed back to bother a teacher I hated a lot!

 

[deafbajagal]

I used to really, really, really believe that if you can't see it, then you can't hear it. Boy was I ever wrong. Lol

 

[Steinhauer]

When they creep around they are quiet, though.

That is only if they are wearing Nikes.

 

[Bottesini]

Take a picture of that!

 

[whatdidyousay!]

Excellent question! Hope someone can explain.

I didn't know that kind of spider run away almost the same sounds like cricket chirping.

 

[deafbajagal]

Not in my presence. The sound from that spider would be a SPLAT!!!
