Common Crickets Found in Burlington
Not all crickets are the same. Understanding which type has invaded your home is key to locating them and implementing the right control strategy. Different crickets are drawn to different environments and can cause different types of problems, from noise to property damage.
In our area, homeowners typically encounter two main types of crickets:
- Field and House Crickets: These are the noisy intruders. They are dark in color and are known for their loud, repetitive chirping, which they use to attract mates. They are drawn to bright lights at night and often enter homes seeking warmth or moisture. Once inside, they can chew on and damage fabrics like wool, silk, and cotton, putting stored clothing or upholstery at risk.
- Camel Crickets (Cave Crickets): These crickets are silent but can be even more unsettling. They are light brown, have a distinct hump-backed appearance, and possess very long, spider-like legs. They are drawn to cool, dark, and very damp environments. You will almost always find them in basements, cellars, crawl spaces, and sheds. While they don't chirp, they often jump erratically at you when startled.
Regardless of the species, a cricket presence indicates that your home has entry points and conditions that are inviting to pests. A professional can identify the species and address the root cause of the infestation.
