High Desert Pest Control
Cricket Control
High Desert crickets show up in big numbers during the warm months, working their way into garages, laundry rooms, and living spaces — and drawing in the spiders and scorpions that eat them.
Call Now — (442) 437-8396Signs of a cricket problem
- Loud chirping at night around the home
- Crickets in garages, patios, and entryways
- Chewed paper, fabric, or stored items
How we handle it
We treat the exterior perimeter and entry points to cut down the numbers getting inside, which also reduces the spiders and scorpions that follow them in.
Free spot treatments
See a cricket between your regular visits? We come back out and re-treat — free.
How crickets get inside
- Gaps under exterior doors and garage doors
- Open windows and torn screens, especially near bright lights
- Cracks where the slab meets the stucco around the perimeter
- Attached garages with weak weather seals
When they're most active
Crickets peak from late summer through early fall. Bright porch and security lights attract them by the dozen and crowds form right at the door, where the next opportunity to slip inside is one open door away.
What you can do before we get there
A few quick things you can do today that'll make any treatment — ours or your own — work better.
- Switch porch bulbs to yellow or amber LEDs — they attract far fewer insects
- Seal gaps under and around doors with weather stripping
- Keep grass and shrubs trimmed away from the foundation
- Run a dehumidifier in damp garages and laundry rooms
