Common questions about Cricket

How can I tell if I have a Cricket problem?

Occasional indoor sightings, usually near ground-level entry points, doors or damp areas, with no ongoing breeding activity indoors — a sign of an outdoor population and an unsealed entry point rather than an infestation.

Is Cricket dangerous, or just a nuisance?

Cricket is usually a minor, occasional nuisance that wanders in from outside — typically through gaps or moisture-prone areas — rather than establishing a true structural infestation.

How do I get rid of Cricket?

Sealing entry points, reducing outdoor moisture and debris near the building, and a PCO's perimeter treatment are usually enough to keep occasional invaders out.

Can I treat Cricket myself, or do I need a professional?

Basic prevention — sanitation, moisture control and sealing likely entry points — is something anyone can do. For an established Cricket infestation, a licensed pest control operator (PCO) can carry out a proper inspection and a targeted treatment programme, which is usually far more reliable than an over-the-counter product used alone.
