Are Crickets Harmful to Your House?

If you have crickets in your house you will soon realize that you want to keep them out. One of the most annoying things you will notice is that they make noise and usually in the night or when it is quiet. The male crickets make a chirping sound that they use to invite the females over. This can be a major annoyance when you are trying to relax and sleep. Although this is not dangerous it can be annoying but it can cause damage as well. Some species of crickets are known for eating and chewing through the fabric in the house as well as books and other papers. This can over time create damage that you will need to repair or replace.

What Attracts Crickets in the House

The pests that you see in your house did not start off there. They are actually out in nature and are equipped to live in it. That does not mean that they do not want to find a better and easier place to reside. That is why pests will start to make their way into your house and your property. They are looking for an easy meal and more important than that a place that they can nest and hide. Your house has all the things that they need to survive and that makes it an easy target. They are able to get in the house through small gaps in the weather stripping around your doors and your windows. You want to make sure that your home is secure if you want to keep crickets out.

How to Keep Crickets Out

One of the things that crickets are drawn to is cardboard and paper. It is a good idea to keep cardboard out of your garage and use plastic bins if possible. They love to live in and hide on cardboard. You also need to make sure you are keeping the house clear of debris so that crickets are not able to hide around the outer edges of the house. Lastly, ensure that your home is treated with professional pest control services. This will help to control the crickets that still get in the house or around it.
