In “Brain Wave”, it wasn’t just human intelligence that increased dramatically. All species were affected the same way. IIRC, the story started with a rabbit caught in a trap. It started thinking much more clearly, and figured out how to escape.

You are correct, although Mr. Anderson didn't include in the story changes in the behavior of insects and bacteria.
