Cricket control in Charleston

Crickets are chirping insects known for their distinctive sound and are often found in gardens and fields, especially during warm months.

The Problem

Crickets belong to the family Gryllidae and are recognized for their long antennae and powerful hind legs. Typically measuring between 0.5 to 2 inches in length, they are usually brown or black. Crickets are most famous for their chirping sound, which is produced by males to attract females. They are nocturnal and prefer warm, humid environments, making them common in gardens and fields during the summer months.

While crickets are generally harmless, their presence can be a nuisance when they invade homes, especially if they find their way indoors. They feed on a variety of organic materials, including plants and decaying matter, which can sometimes lead to minor damage in gardens.
