About Crickets and Signs of Infestation
Crickets enter homes seeking warmth and moisture, especially during seasonal changes. Once inside, they breed quickly and hide behind furniture, baseboards, and in basements.
Signs of a cricket infestation include:
- Loud chirping at night
- Shed cricket skins or droppings
- Small holes in fabrics, clothing, or cardboard
- Sightings in basements, bathrooms, or near water heaters
How Arete Treats Cricket Infestations
Our comprehensive cricket removal process targets both indoor and outdoor activity zones:
- Inspection: Identify access points and moisture areas that attract crickets.
- Treatment: Apply targeted residual sprays and granular products around baseboards, garages, and foundations.
- Exclusion: Seal cracks, weatherstripping, and vents to stop re-entry.
- Follow-Up: Re-inspection to ensure full elimination.
Prevention and Homeowner Tips
Crickets thrive in humid, cluttered environments. To prevent re-infestation:
- Reduce clutter and storage piles in basements or garages.
- Keep exterior lighting minimal—crickets are attracted to light.
- Use dehumidifiers in crawlspaces.
- Seal gaps under doors and around window frames.
