Crickets

House Cricket

Physical Characteristics
The adult House cricket is 3/4 7/8 long. They are typically light yellowish brown with 3 dark crossbands on the head.

Behavior
The House crickets name comes from the fact that this cricket often enters homes where they can survive indefinitely, hence the House cricket. The house cricket feeds on wool, cotton and synthetics, resulting in large areas of fabric being eaten.

The House cricket typically lives outdoors during warm weather, when cold weather is approaching they seek refuge inside homes and sheds.

Their presence is often indicated by the males chirping sound which occurs either day or night and is known as a calling song used to attract females.

Treatment
Most infestations of crickets can be controlled with Clark's Year Round Pest Control.
