Best Answer

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.

I had a cricket in my kitchen once and every time the microwave went "ping" the cricket's whole body would jerk, as if it was startled. It didn;t do it with any other sound, just the ping of the microwave. Man it was funny.

Yes, I have seen them at night. I don't have much information about grasshoppers, but it appears as if the ones that come out at night are brighter green in color. Maybe the nocturnal ones are a different species.

Why do grasshoppers make sounds?

Only the male crickets chirp. The sound is emitted by the stridulatory organ, a large vein running along the bottom of each wing, covered with "teeth" (serration) much like a comb. 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.
