🦗 WHY ARE CRICKETS EVERYWHERE RIGHT NOW?
🏡 KANSAS HOMEOWNERS — FALL CRICKET SEASON IS HERE!
Have you noticed crickets around your doors, garage, basement, or jumping across your floors? There’s a reason they become such a nuisance this time of year!
🔎 DID YOU KNOW? CRICKETS HAVE A BREEDING CYCLE!
🦗 SUMMER: Crickets grow and develop outdoors, feeding on plant material and organic debris.
🥚 LATE SUMMER & FALL: Adult field crickets mate, and females lay eggs in the soil. Those eggs typically survive the winter and hatch the following spring, starting the cycle all over again!
🏠 FALL INVASIONS: As temperatures cool, crickets seek warmth around homes and buildings. They can squeeze through gaps around doors, foundations, windows, and garage doors. Some species, such as house crickets, can also reproduce indoors under suitable conditions.
⚠️ WHY WAITING CAN MAKE THE PROBLEM WORSE
The more crickets gathering around your home, the greater the chance they’ll find a way inside. Once indoors, they can become a nuisance with constant chirping, droppings, and contamination of surfaces or stored items.
