\"Why<\/a>
Cricket Time<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The cool weather brings with it thoughts of cozy winter nights spent indoors with family. It also brings one of New Jersey’s noisiest pest<\/a>. Like many insects, crickets are nocturnal. But they are also unapologetic and unrelenting in their chirping. These males know their stridulation will attract females and notify other males to stay away. They also know to halt when you begin closing in on them.<\/p>\n

It is better to prevent them from entering your home than to spend many sleepless nights hoping to silence these hopping songsters.<\/p>\n

Temperature and crickets<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Texas A&M AgriLife Extension<\/a>, late summer and early fall are when the common field crickets lay their eggs. A typical female will give birth to between 150 and 400 eggs. These eggs are buried in the soil and will hatch in the spring. The adults that do enter your home may not lay eggs indoors, but they can still be a nuisance.<\/p>\n

While you lie awake in bed, you can calculate the ambient temperature by the rate of the cricket’s chirping. See Dolbear’s Law<\/a> for specifics. Basically, they chirp faster when warm and slower in cold temperatures.<\/p>\n

In addition to keeping weeds away from your home’s foundation and your crawl space free of moisture, contact the experts at Allison Pest Control<\/a> for a perimeter pest control treatment of your property. Keep the crickets outside and make your own beautiful music indoors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
