Has anyone tried DIY ultrasonic projects? I’m thinking of building one with a speaker to test frequencies around 40 kHz. Could be a fun experiment!

I’ve read mosquitoes are more attracted to low frequencies like 150-500 Hz for mating. High frequencies might annoy them, but evidence is shaky. I’d love to see more research!
