If you have ever opened up your shed or peaked into your crawl space, the sight of camel back crickets would surely make you jump.\u00a0 Camel back crickets<\/a>, also known as cave crickets, have an odd looking appearance due to the slightly protruding hump on their back.\u00a0 The legs on these nuisance pests are longer and stand taller than the typical cricket that people see roaming about.\u00a0 It is not uncommon for these pests to be confused with spiders.<\/p>\n

Besides looking strange, cave crickets<\/a> are known for jumping great distances, often times towards people or animals.\u00a0 This jumping could be a sign of aggression or it could be because of their unique eyesight which appears to the cricket as if it is jumping away, when in fact the insect is jumping towards what it is trying to escape from.<\/p>\n

Camel back crickets are attracted to areas that are dark and damp.\u00a0 These areas provide the crickets with the water, mold and fungus which they need for survival.\u00a0 Once camel back crickets have an established area to live in, they will reproduce very quickly.<\/p>\n

The cold winter months or the hot dry summertime will drive these creatures indoors into cool, dark basements.\u00a0 Because they don\u2019t chirp, homeowners don\u2019t typically know that these crickets have moved inside until the population is bursting out-of-control.<\/p>\n

It is important to contact a Monmouth County, NJ exterminator<\/a> at the first sign of these pests to stop their reproduction cycle.\u00a0 Having regular pest control treatments will provide your home with a protective barrier to keep these and all other types of pests out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
