    Didn’t think geek sell something similar years ago?

    I remember as students we would hide it in each other’s rooms and you only knew it was found when it showed up somewhere else

      Yes, and I got one and a friend of mine was livid after I used it on him. Took him a month to find it, his mom was pissed and it was a whole thing.

      Still fun, though

    There’s a homemade version of this I’ve heard of where they incorporated a photodiode or something, so it wouldn’t go off in the presence of light, making it even harder to find lol

    I got one of a screaming goat and left it in the ceiling at my old job. I thought about getting a cat meowing one but didn’t want to commit to someone busting out the drywall to rescue an imaginary cat.

    Heard from my old boss it took them 3 days to find the thing.

      We actually had hidden a cat noise maker in the ceiling of the break room. Didn’t last long, though. Easy to access sub-ceilings.

    Ugh I have a cricket infestation right now and it’s so obnoxious. This is true evil.

    Where do I get this and what do I have to search for to find it?
