Is There A Noisier Insect Than Cicadas?

Then make so much noise all summer long. Thank God for the Mississippi kites that come here in the spring and hunt the cicadas and eat them. They are easy for the birds to hunt as their loud buzzing leads them right to them. It’s amusing to hear cicadas buzzing loudly as the kites are flying off with them in their mouths.

@Azlotto a squirrel in the wall is quite noisy, tries to dig it’s way out, gets tired after about 10 minutes and barks like a little chihuahua out of frustration....rests about 15 minutes and starts back up. Heard it for a day and night and the next day he worked his way through the walls through an opening where the water heater closet is and out into the garage. When I heard things being knocked over to the floor in the garage I knew he had escaped the walls.
