    It’s cool to us.

    I can absolutely confirm that neither cats nor dogs particularly enjoy hearing multiple frequencies in that range, as I use ultrasonic noisemakers to train dogs and cats. Both species have had specific individuals that reacted as though I had just beaten them, and all the individuals of both species reacted in such a way that it was clear that they would do just about anything to never hear those noises again.

    That being said, I wonder if they could hear that frequency all the time and were freaked out that a human was shouting in plant language.

      Maybe it has something to do with the volume. If plants are at, let’s say, 40dB and you blast the animals with a 100 dB sound…
