Bug Bytes - Insect Micro-Recordings



OMG ... check this out folks (from memepool.com):

"The sounds of crickets courting and flies flying familiar to many of us,
but have you heard a rice weevil larva eating inside a wheat kernel, a
termite cutting a piece of wood, or a grub chewing on a root?  Modern insect
detection and control technology makes use of these subtle signals, sampled
below.

Most of the ~40 sound files on this page were selected from noise-free
sections of recorded signal, but you can hear some typical background noises
mixed with insect sounds at I below.  The insect sounds have higher
frequencies and shorter durations that make them relatively easy to separate
from background."
