Only Female Crickets make noise.
TRUE or FALSE
Male crickets make the noise by rubbing their wings together. Their wings are ribbed, which can intensify the sound of the chirp. The warmer the temperature is, the faster they can chirp louder.
One wing has a comb-like structure called the file, while the other has a hardened edge called the scraper. When the male moves his wings rapidly, the scraper slides across the file, producing a series of pulses that form the familiar chirp. The wing membrane acts as an acoustic amplifier, projecting the sound over long distances to attract females or warn rival males
