Hi Ariesmars
I'm sorry it bothers you so. After being cooped up all winter, I enjoy hearing the bugs and birds through my open window. It's the constant traffic and police/fire sirens that bother me. One year my sister and I traveled up to the tip of Wisconsin and stayed in a cabin on an island after peak season - we were the only ones there. I was really looking forward to falling asleep to the sound of ONLY nature. As I drifted off to sleep to the sound of a cricket, I realized the chirp didn't sound right. It became very irritating, so I headed out into the darkness to find the source. Turns out it was a low battery on a smoke alarm in an empty cabin several doors down. It was open, but the alarm was on a high ceiling I couldn't reach. The main office was closed. I headed down to the shoreline, found a chair, and sat there til dawn. When it started to drizzle, I thought I couldn't be more miserable. However, a Great Blue Heron entertained me. He was about 10 feet away munching on a huge fish he caught as he fought off another Great Blue trying to sneak a bite. ![]() |

Do you have those loud things....what are they called....the loud buzzing....oh yeah, Cicadas?
I've heard those things before and they get to me after a few minutes. Growing up in California, we had these bugs that looked like mutated crickets. They would make this clicking sound which wasn't too bad, but then they would also make this really high pitched buzzing sound that would go on for hours. Sometimes I couldn't even leave my windows open at night because they'd get so loud. Hope they're quieting down for you. ![]()

I don't like it as well... especially if it goes right by my head!
But what I hate more is the sound of people chewing or breathing loudly! That just...grrr... |

Sorry they annoy you so much ((ariesmars)). I have a comical story to share. I normally don't mind bugs sounds, as long as they're OUTSIDE. When my oldest was younger, a cricket got inside the living room. We have one of those tall vaulted ceilings - the kind that needs a scaffold to paint it. There's also 2 skylights on the ceiling - this kind of architecture is great for singers because it magnifies the sound wonderfully.
Well that would be great, but a cricket somehow made its way to the very top of the skylight and it chirped or whatever you call it every second of the day. There I was home with my 2 yr old listening to this ALL day - it was driving me batty. At 1st I couldn't figure out where the heck it was and then after suffering all day, I saw it in the skylight over the stairwell. I put 2 vacuum poles together and went to the top of the stairwell and luckily I got it....finally peace at last.

I didn't think about that one ariesmars. Luckily its one of those central vacuums with the base unit in the garage. I suppose it lived for a while but I didn't hear it. What a way to go. I honestly couldn't stand it another minute that day - I was at war with that chirp every second cricket lol.
