it's suppose that only young people can hear it and its a high pitched sound?
Where can i get this ringtone for free?

It's called "mosquito", and it's in the higher frequencies, which is where most hearing loss occurs - whether it's from aging, noise exposure, medical conditions or medications - so the theory is that the younger you are, the more likely you will hear it.
It was originally developed to annoy kids and keep them from loitering in certain places. Here's an article with a download link:

It don't work the people on my local news which are of course adults a few of them had downloaded it and they can hear it! So it's a rip off.

What? I cant hear you what?
So is this a 'maturity' ring or an age ring?
Too bad adults, teenagers, and children all hear in the same frequencies...no it does not exist. If someone is offering that they are misleading. Animals such as dogs can hear at higher frequencies, it's not an age thing
