Sprickets

WHY DO SPRICKETS GATHER IN MY HOUSE?

The simple answer is that they are there for food, shelter, and to find others to mate with in a protected location.  Basically, your house is party central for these springy crickets. They dwell in dark places and basements, and while it's bad enough that they look like spiders  these lookalikes take full advantage of the similarity to hop like a demented spring when startled. Don't worry, sprickets are quite harmless, much like the grasshoppers you see in yards and fields. They don't have fangs, they aren't venomous, and they can't bite, but they are omnivores, eating just about anything in sight.

HOW CAN I PREVENT SPRICKET INFESTATION?

Deterring camel crickets is as simple as taking care of any moisture issues you’re having. This includes taking care of leaky pipes and making sure you don’t have any drainage problems that can make your basement very inviting. Take steps to ventilate crawlspaces as this will prevent moisture buildup. If you discover where they are getting in, you will need to figure out where they might be coming from. ​

Habitat modification is very important in roach control. Roach survival is higher with high humidity and drinking water. Humidity can be reduced with a dehumidifier. Access to drinking water can be reduced by fixing leaky faucets and pipes. Reduce sources of moisture from condensation by improving ventilation.
