Preventing crickets from invading your property starts with minimizing their access to food, shelter, and moisture. Seal cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and foundations to prevent entry. Keep outdoor lighting to a minimum, as crickets are attracted to bright lights at night. Reduce clutter in basements, garages, and storage areas where crickets can hide. Additionally, maintaining a well-manicured lawn and trimming vegetation away from your home helps eliminate potential breeding grounds.

Riverside, California, is home to several cricket species that can become nuisances to residents. Here are three common type
House crickets are light brown with three dark bands on their heads and measure about 3/4 to 7/8 inches in length. They are known for their loud, persistent chirping, especially during the night. Attracted to warmth and light, house crickets often enter homes and can damage fabrics, paper, and plants. They are commonly found in kitchens, basements, and areas with moisture.
Field crickets are typically black or dark brown and range from 1/2 to 1 inch in length. They prefer outdoor environments like fields and lawns but may enter homes seeking shelter. Field crickets are known for their loud chirping and can cause damage to crops and garden plants. They are attracted to light and may gather around well-lit areas during the evening.
Despite their name, Jerusalem crickets are not true crickets and are native to the western United States. They have large, human-like heads and can grow up to 2 inches in length. Jerusalem crickets are wingless, have a shiny brown body, and are primarily nocturnal. They are found in moist soil under rocks or logs and are known for their strong mandibles, which can deliver a painful bite if handled.
Understanding these common cricket species can help in identifying and managing potential infestations in and around Riverside homes.
Dealing with a cricket infestation starts with identifying their hiding spots and food sources. Crickets are attracted to warm, moist environments and often enter homes through small gaps and cracks. To eliminate them, start by sealing all entry points, including gaps around windows, doors, and vents. Using sticky traps and bait stations can help capture crickets indoors, while targeted insecticide treatments can be applied to areas where they are most active. Southland Pest Control provides expert inspections and customized treatment plans to ensure complete cricket removal.
The best way to deal with crickets is to prevent them from entering your home in the first place. Reducing outdoor lighting at night can help since crickets are drawn to bright lights. Keeping your yard well-maintained by trimming grass, removing debris, and clearing piles of wood or leaves reduces their hiding spots. Additionally, reducing excess moisture around your property by fixing leaky pipes and ensuring proper drainage makes your home less attractive to crickets. Regular pest control treatments create a protective barrier to keep crickets out.
For ongoing protection, Southland Pest Control offers monthly, bi-monthly, and quarterly cricket control services to keep your home or business pest-free year-round.

Outdoors, crickets can wreak havoc on gardens, feeding on plants, grass, and seedlings, potentially damaging landscaping and crops. Additionally, their persistent chirping can be a major nuisance, especially when they invade living spaces in large numbers.
