Crickets are more of a nuisance than anything else. They spend their days mostly burrowing beneath stones, under piles of dirt, logs, or plants. At night is when they are most active, and the male’s chirp can become extremely loud. Depending on the air temperature will dictate the crickets chirping rates; usually the warmer it is, the louder the chirping will be.

Some of the best methods to get rid of crickets are:

• Reduce the moisture in areas around your home.

• Move any woodpiles away from structures.

• Consistently mow your lawn and keep your plants trimmed.
