Behavior and habits
They breed in tall grass and mulch, moving indoors as nights cool in late summer.
Why crickets are a problem
Beyond sleepless chirping, crickets chew fabrics, paper, and stored goods.
How Antex handles crickets
Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.
Prevention tips
Mow the yard margin, move woodpiles off the wall, and seal weep holes and door gaps.
