Signs you have them
- Chirping inside at night
- Piles of dead crickets near doors and storefronts in late summer
- Holes chewed in fabric
Why it matters
They damage fabric and paper, and large invasions smell as they die off.
How we treat it
Inside and outside treatment plus a yard granule. During invasions we focus on entryways, lights, and the foundation.
Prevention
- Use yellow or LED bulbs outdoors
- Install door sweeps
- Sweep up dead crickets quickly
