Crickets Pest Control: Noisy, Invasive Occasional Invaders
While many people fondly associate crickets with their pleasant summer chirping sounds outdoors, having them invade inside is less endearing. Unfortunately, certain cricket species like field crickets, house crickets, and camel crickets will readily come indoors seeking warmth, moisture, and shelter as temperatures cool.
When crickets make their way inside homes, businesses, and other buildings, they can quickly become a nuisance. Their loud chirping coming from dark corners or behind appliances can be extremely annoying. As they forage and travel, crickets also contaminate surfaces and materials with their droppings and shed exoskeletons.
Signs of Indoor Cricket Activity
Hearing persistent chirping noises, often at night
Finding crickets hopping around bathrooms, kitchens, basements, crawl spaces
Noticing damage to stored items, fabrics, paper products from crickets chewing
Seeing oval droppings or shed cricket skin casings

Thorough inspection to identify entry points and conducive conditions
