It turned out 90 Hz is near the same
frequency as
wing beats of parasitic wasps, the jumping spider's biggest enemies, which provision their nests with jumping spiders for their young to feed on.

beat frequency attracts males at specific mating times.
Not only can they pick up sounds from at least 375 body - lengths away (about 10 feet), but they're also specially attuned to the
