Cricket Question

[Triton]

I've had all I can take. I pick up and flush about 10 crickets from my master bath everyday. I hardly ever get them from another place in the house. I do have hundreds that live and die in the garage but the master bath is on the other end of the house. Anyone ever seen this? Where are they coming from?

Black crickets or them weird looking cave crickets. I got cave crickets in my house, and I ain't a caveman.

I have those guys in my house as well, although only in the basement. They are a pain in the rear and can jump a looooong way.

Put diatomaceous earth around your base boards where they are getting in. It kills them and it's not poison.

Open a "catch your own" bait shop.

DE earth, or boric acid might work. how are they getting in? got a good deal at bagdad,ky. on DE earth, 50# for $32. might get a better deal if ya do more research, good luck with pest.
i think they like moisture also
