Glad I found this video. Tried to look up “summer bug at night chee chee chee sound” and kept getting snowy tree cricket. Nope, definitely a katydid, which I had never heard of but was very familiar with the sound.
I also tried searching 'which insect makes a sound like ch-ch-ch-ch. I'm in Georgia right now in the middle of August and in my backyard I can hear about four katydids communicating with each other, but I only hear a pulse of four consistently. Never two or three times, at least not yet since I started listening after moving here recently. It's definitely neat listening to them communicate, though.
If you're a city kid who has just moved into the country and the sound is literally making you psychotic at night, if you HOLLER REAL LOUD at them, they will shut up---for about 5 seconds. Restores your sense of control over the situation, if only briefly!!
This summer I heard a chirping at night that I've never heard before. I searched birds, cicadas and crickets and came up with nothing until now. Thank you so much for helping me figure out the sound I've been hearing!
Love listening to these guys scritching out their 2-, 3-, and 4-chirp patterns up in the nearby trees. Listen and try to anticipate the counts. The sound of peaceful late summer evenings, home in New England.
I love this sound. This and the crickets at night. I described it as "ch-Chə-Chə-chə". Nothing about it remotely sounds like "ka-ty-did" to me. I was quite pleased to be able to hear these lovely soothing summer night sounds all winter when my housemate fed insects to his tarantula in the terrarium with its electric warmer.
I heard this last night. I noticed a Katydid about two days ago. Last night, I was sitting out, as I feed a stray cat, when all at once, this noise was right behind me, scared me a good one! I had NO idea what is was, I looked behind me, there was the Katydid up on the vinyl siding by the front door. The sound was loud!
Thanks for the reply. I just heard the Katydid again on youtube, hadn't heard it since late summer, wow, that noise is different from any other. I wouldn't want to listen to it everyday, at the same time, am intrigued by it!
Like a moth, like a katydid, like flyzez and like fleazez. Anyone who gets that reference has my eternal appreciation. Thanks for the video! Very informative.
There was a katydid clung to one of the windows at my apartment today. I'm sure in the past I have confused them with praying mantises. They look kind of like a hybrid between a grasshopper and a praying mantis. Thanks again!
We just moved out into the country and though I'd seen these things around in the suburbs before, I had no idea that was the noise they made. We've heard hundreds around the house at night but we are close to a pond so I thought they were toads or frogs. Thanks for the education!
Went for a walk and heard these. Thought it was a bird or frog or cricket of some sort. Went through dozens of searches before stumbling across this. Thank you for the very helpful video!
A daytime chorus of cicadas has NOTHING on a nighttime chorus of katydids. When they're thick at night in the appalachian mountains, they're absolutely deafening.
The sound that's driving me crazy at night is similar but sharper and more high pitched ans sounds like it is right next to my bedroom window. I'm wondering if I should spay peppermint or something around this area?
Last night I heard the sound of maybe a few💯 's of these Katydids bugs rubbing their Wings together & God is my witness but what I hears coming from these masses of Katydids with their combined sounds crescending in such a unison sound as they were a choir chanting, "Hap-py, Hap-py, Hap-py" Nature speaks & is understood if anyone listens 👂 👂. The sound was so explicate that it literally frightened me. Listen carefully they're messengers.
I love singing insects! We have nothing here in the Puget Sound but some field crickets in the late fall. Growing up in the rural / suburban interface of the Willamette Valley, the tree crickets would create a rhythm that made the whole air thrum. I would occasionally find katydids--a very special event for me as a kid.
Omg thank you for this, finally figured out what's been driving me absolutely freaking nuts the past few weeks. I can understand why some folks enjoy them, but I'm about to rip my hair out lol
I’m sitting here in Florida looking at one of these creatures walking around on top of my grill. I’ve never seen one before.. So of course I looked it up. Thought he was a big green leaf at first.
I never knew Katy dids made noises! We don't have many around where I live, though. It's pretty rare to find one! I sure love the little flying leaves though. 🙂

They look like huge diabolical aphids to me. Never seen them though I've heard of them. They sound like Stellers Jays, which do live here in the Northwest.
rn it is 5:10 in the morning and im hearing an insect that sounds sorta like a whistle they would blow during a soccer game. it makes a long beep sound, beeeeeeeep pause beeeeeeeep and it repeats. if anyone has any idea what it pls tell me I'd like to know.
Sorry, but the mnemonic device is not “Katy did/Katy,” as you indicated in your video, but rather “Katy did” (3 syllables) / “Katy didn’t” (4 syllables).
I hear these out my window and I always keep my window open I thought it was my extension cord making the noise because it was cheap I listen out my window it’s those dumb Katydids 😭😭
They are loud annoying and repetitive.. I've heard them for the first time every year for the last 3 years when the nights get cooler in Michigan ...turning a fan on for White noise helps

I said “bug at night, chick chick chick sound” haha

"bug 3 triple sound at night"
That did not work, so I put "night bug sounds North Carolina"
If you're a city kid who has just moved into the country and the sound is literally making you psychotic at night, if you HOLLER REAL LOUD at them, they will shut up---for about 5 seconds. Restores your sense of control over the situation, if only briefly!!
Bro this is for real me rn. Not from city but Wisconsin to Arkansas. It drove me nuts until I figured out what it was
I find the sounds of these relaxing when there's a lot of then
Finally i know what this noise is!
I love that sound especially on a warm, still, moonless summer night♥️🦗
It is an awful sounds 😂😅
Unless ur sleeping for an important event the next day 😂😂😂😂
This summer I heard a chirping at night that I've never heard before. I searched birds, cicadas and crickets and came up with nothing until now. Thank you so much for helping me figure out the sound I've been hearing!
This sound keeps me up at night

All this time I assumed that was a cicada, wild
Thanks for the reply. I just heard the Katydid again on youtube, hadn't heard it since late summer, wow, that noise is different from any other. I wouldn't want to listen to it everyday, at the same time, am intrigued by it!
Music to my ears!
I love the sound they make.

Ah, so this is what is making those repetitive, chirping, night sounds, in groups of three or two, on the Illinois river I live on! Thanks much! 😊🦗
I love this sound in the summer! Thanks for posting!❤
3 pulses- Katy did. 4 pulses- Katy didn’t. Usually means the end of all the hot temperatures. A sound I look forward to hearing.
Oof this is my only solace right now.. These guys and the heat have been messing with my sleep so bad lol
Had one of these in the house just now, he’s no king in the house
I hear "oh they did" "no they did-n't" these are true nocturnal gossipers ;)
I'm not sure if I'm mad at you or if I love you for planting this in my head.. I can't unhear it 😂😂
cicadas in the day and katidids at nite how nice
Great information! I think they sound like someone playing the wooden fish instrument!
You can know the temperature by the speed, and length of their song, very fast - hot, and Katy only on cooler nights...

(4 syllables): "KATYDIDIT!"😆

Nature speaks & is understood if anyone listens 👂 👂.

Listen carefully they're messengers.
Thanks for the info!
I heard something quite similar the other night on a walk and they were up in the trees. Location western Canada.... Thanks for sharing.
Finally figured out the noise in my silver maples at night!
I had one of these guys sitting on my window screen the other morning :)
Mine too! Little bugger was loud last night.
@@philo_sophye they are soooo noisy! I didn’t know what I was hearing the first time I heard them, I thought it was a squeaky rocking chair lol

The cicadas were so loud in 2016 in Michigan and in Arkansas (two states I lived in that year) that you could feel the hum in the air. Amazing!
Omg thank you for this, finally figured out what's been driving me absolutely freaking nuts the past few weeks. I can understand why some folks enjoy them, but I'm about to rip my hair out lol
Update.. It moved a few trees away lol 😂
I live in the middle of the city and these insects are so loud. I can't imagine how loud they would be out in the country
Thank you
Thanks for sharing
I’m sitting here in Florida looking at one of these creatures walking around on top of my grill. I’ve never seen one before.. So of course I looked it up. Thought he was a big green leaf at first.
I never knew Katy dids made noises! We don't have many around where I live, though. It's pretty rare to find one! I sure love the little flying leaves though. 🙂

So.. my daughter had one in Her window. She freaked out. Thought it was a duck. 😂
What is the best way to isolate a single frequency what kind of filter or do You need to set what best tool for the job ?
I had a pet katydid he was a good pet
there's a katydid outside my apartment that chirps in patterns of 2 and 3 all night long. could NOT figure out what it was till i came here!
What musically root note or fundamental pitch is it at ? God Bless
One chirping outside my house rn. It is 1am and I am trying to sleep.
В Абхазии их очень много, только они там коричневые, когда проходишь мимо дерева, на котором они собрались и трещат, звук просто оглушает!😅😅
Абхазские по другому трещат
They look like huge diabolical aphids to me. Never seen them though I've heard of them. They sound like Stellers Jays, which do live here in the Northwest.
The ones where I live do fly. I took one off my car roof the other day to relocate it and it took flight ✈️
Is the quieter sound heard in the background at 0:14 also a Katydid?
I'm trying to figure out the name of the insect making the noise in the background to the cicada chirp in this video. Any idea?
rn it is 5:10 in the morning and im hearing an insect that sounds sorta like a whistle they would blow during a soccer game. it makes a long beep sound, beeeeeeeep pause beeeeeeeep and it repeats. if anyone has any idea what it pls tell me I'd like to know.
I thought this noise was a cicada just using a different call at night
The look disturbs me 😭
Sorry, but the mnemonic device is not “Katy did/Katy,” as you indicated in your video, but rather “Katy did” (3 syllables) / “Katy didn’t” (4 syllables).
We have a pet katiedid
I hear these out my window and I always keep my window open I thought it was my extension cord making the noise because it was cheap I listen out my window it’s those dumb Katydids 😭😭
Ahh, yes. "Ka-ty-did" sounds JUST like "AAAA-AAAA-AAAA!"
10/10, insect namers. (Who do you think named these bugs, anyway?)
They are loud annoying and repetitive.. I've heard them for the first time every year for the last 3 years when the nights get cooler in Michigan ...turning a fan on for White noise helps
These guys wouldn’t stfu last night
I’m gonna get hot lava and throw it
Aweful
