How to Get Rid of Crickets

Cricket control begins outdoors by removing moist harbrages, such as wood piles, landscape timbers, stones, rocks, etc. to prevent them from coming indoors; an inspection must be done around the exterior to find any potential entry points. Crickets can enter a structure through the trim of a home and a barrier treatment may be necessary to stop them from infesting in your home.  

What Do House Crickets Eat?

House crickets eat organic material such as rotting leaves, rotting fruit and vegetables, and even other insects. Once inside the structure, they will feed on a variety of fabrics and glue. The house cricket prefers natural fibers like wool and silk.

Can House Crickets Fly?

Adult house crickets do have developed wings and can fly; however, they prefer to crawl or hop. The nymphs do not have wings but will develop them as they molt into an adult.
