Noise that annoys
Heard about it; couldn’t hear it. The mosquito. Actually, this story has been around for a while, but there’s a local flavour, according to the news. Store owners who have camp followers, in the sense of kids that hang around outside (waiting for Godot) and drive more monied customers into the arms of the competition have been testing a repellant that uses high frequency sound to annoy the young, more than the young annoy them. Simply feed the sound into your outdoor speakers and the triage is done.
