An invasion of crickets in the apartment!

Community and ForumHow to get rid of insectsAn invasion of crickets in the apartment!

Лена Нижнекамск, 29.08.2008 22:45

Almost a month as crickets appear in the apartment, both large and small. We find out when we get home in the evening. We live on the first floor of an ordinary nine-story building. Please help me and tell me how to display them. An ordinary raptor kills them, but they again and again climb into the house! From where? Do they have time for the door from the corridor? From the window? From the ventilation system?? There are more and more of them every night. At first it was one or two, now we can destroy up to six or seven in one evening!

I encountered the same problem. I only live on the 15th floor of an 18-storey monolithic building. I've killed three crickets in the last month. That's disgusting! Crickets began to creep as new neighbors appeared on the floor above and began to renovate. Help!!!

Well, why are you ruining your little animal? Crickets - they're so small, and they don't do anyone any harm. And on the street they are cold, they are already freezing.

Leave the crickets alone, herods! This is probably the usual house cricket acheta domesticus, they eat all sorts of plant waste. Orderlies of the apartment smile.gif. These are not Prussians, they will live quietly, chatter. Then they will go to the next house.

when there are crickets in the apartment, it's a disaster...we can't sleep at night..in the enclosed space, they chirp even louder!!!
Here they ask FOR HELP when they have already finished baking..instead of waiting for statements: WHY DESTROY IT?...
we have been fighting this scourge for six months now...when one or two is half the trouble...killed him, that's all...but now the real invasion. I kill a cricket almost every day, and a new one sings low.. I'm tired of this hunt... WHO FROM EXPERIENCE knows HOW to LIME them FOREVER??????? and about the signs...I also thought that crickets in the apartment were good (I consoled myself with this)... and just the villagers told me that crickets with their singing get rid of us from the apartment........((((((((

Well, then, you are not worthy of this apartment

People who did not have their invasion do not understand what it is a
cricket is a terrible insect that moves quickly, jumps (if a person is hunting for it, then he jumps on it) they climb and climb it's terrible, but how they chirp
who is worthy of what is not decided by insects

It requires treatment as from cockroaches (with the use of gels, putties of all sorts in all crevices, etc.) Only in this way.
And also be sure to write an application to the housing office or HOA, let them carry out a full sanitary treatment of the house (this is usually how cockroaches are removed, and crickets are their close relatives).
Good luck!

I read about it in a book. Only there were locusts there. Oh, yes, in the Bible...

So the crickets found their owner... and what a good exchange of apartments would have turned out!
In addition to applying to the HOA and housing department, you need to look for neighbors in the invasion, go around all adjacent neighbors and talk intelligently with them and find out!
Possible options: 1. bred crickets (they like to breed them, or feed lizards, and they suddenly all ran away...etc.)
2. did major repairs
3. brought with you as part of any product
4 ... etc.
Vopschem intelligence on the neighbors, and the application to the housing Department for processing the entire house as a whole (if there are neighbors affected, write a collective application...)
Good luck!
