Cricket Prevention Tips for Homeowners in the DFW Area

While crickets can be fascinating creatures, they can also become a nuisance when they invade your home. Here are some effective prevention tips:

Clean up crumbs: Crickets can feed on crumbs and organic matter, so make sure to clean up food spills, particularly in dark areas like basements and attics.

Seal entry points: Crickets can enter through cracks in windows, doors, and vents. Seal these openings with caulking or weatherstripping.

Reduce outdoor lighting: Crickets are attracted to lights, so consider reducing outdoor lighting near entrances, windows, and doors, especially during warmer months.

Eliminate moisture: Crickets are attracted to damp environments. Fix leaky faucets, pipes, and ensure proper drainage around your home.

Keep the yard clean: Trim back bushes, tall grass, and remove any piles of leaves or debris where crickets may hide.

Common Questions About Crickets

No, crickets are not harmful to humans. They don’t bite or sting and are generally harmless. However, they can cause damage to fabrics, paper, and food if left unchecked.

Crickets chirp at night primarily to attract mates. Male crickets use their chirps as a mating call, and the rate of chirping is often influenced by temperature—warmer weather means more chirping!

If you hear persistent chirping inside your home, especially at night, or if you find crickets in various areas of your house (such as in cabinets, basements, or under furniture), it may indicate an infestation.

To get rid of crickets, first, identify and seal any entry points, remove their food and water sources, and reduce outdoor lighting. For more extensive infestations, Home Run Pest & Termite Control offers professional pest control services to eliminate crickets and prevent future invasions.
