Yes, an increase in temperature and a decrease in wind speed can cause a cricket to chirp more frequently. Crickets chirp faster in warmer temperatures because their metabolic rate increases, while lower wind speeds make it easier for them to produce sounds.
Only male crickets chirp. It's actually called 'stirdulation'. This happens when it rubs the bottom part of one of its wings on the top part of the other wing. There are 3 reasons why crickets chirp; 1) to attract females; 2) to impress the female he has already attracted; 3) to warn other males to stay away. Also, you can tell the temperature outside by listening to how fast they chirp; the hotter it is, the faster they chirp and the colder it is, the slower. Just count the number of chirps you hear in 13 seconds and add 40 and that's the temperature.
Only the male crickets chirp. A large vein running along the bottom of each wing has "teeth," much like a comb does. The chirping sound is created by running the top of one wing along the teeth at the bottom of the other wing. As he does this, the cricket also holds the wings up and open, so that the wing membranes can act as acoustical sails. It is a popular myth that the cricket chirps by rubbing its legs together.
Yes, crickets are most active and make their sounds during the evening and night time. They use their chirping as a way to communicate with each other and attract mates.
Nature is beautiful, with trees, flowers, and animals all around. The sun shines bright in the sky, birds chirp happily, and rivers flow peacefully through the landscape. In nature, one can find peace, serenity, and a connection to the world around us.
Most of the time only the male grasshoppers chirp. However, female grasshoppers also chirp, but not as much as the males.
Grasshoppers and locusts are actually the same species at different times. Grasshoppers chirp, therefore to my knowledge locusts chirp.
no they dont
They might chirp to communicate with others or family.
Exactly like a cricket. Except a grasshoppers noise is louder. I heard them before. I saw them in a baseball field. You know I love to play baseball. Grasshoppers make noise but we humans can yell louder than a chirp of a grasshopper. This is why a grasshoppers chirp is louder than a crickets. Because a grasshoppers voicebox is larger than a crickets. Easy to kill. We are big, and strong.

yes even outside
Crickets chirp primarily at night to attract mates or establish territory. The frequency of their chirping can also be influenced by temperature and other environmental factors.
Yes, grasshoppers produce sounds to attract mates and protect their territory. Unlike crickets, grasshoppers do not make sound by rubbing their wings together. They make sound using stridulation or crepitation. Stridulation is rubbing one body part against another, crepitation is when the grasshoppers snap their hindwings rapidly as they fly.
yes, higher the temp higher the sound
The noise that most grasshoppers make is caused by them rubbing their back legs together. They don't do this non-stop every summer day, but they do make the sound a lot when they are protecting their territory or calling for a mate.
