Mosquito Sounds

Authentic variety of Mosquito sounds.

Mosquito sounds are high-pitched noises produced by the rapid wing beats of mosquitoes, typically in the frequency range of 300 to 600 Hertz. These sounds are more audible to humans when generated by female mosquitoes, as they beat their wings faster than males. The buzzing or whining sound is a result of the rapid oscillation of their wings, and it serves as a means of communication and navigation for the mosquitoes. Some devices are designed to emit mosquito-like sounds to repel these insects, but the effectiveness of such methods is often debated.
