About Crickets

Crickets are nocturnal insects from the Gryllidae family. They are closely related to grasshoppers and are easily recognised by their long antennae and chirping sounds. In Melbourne, the two most commonly encountered species are:

βœ“
House Cricket: (Acheta domesticus) – Light brown, about 2 cm long, and prefers warm environments.
βœ“
Field Cricket: (Teleogryllus oceanicus) – Larger, black or dark brown, commonly found in gardens and subfloors.

Why Are Crickets a Problem?

βœ“
Noise Pollution: Males chirp loudly to attract mates, especially at night.
βœ“
Damage to Stored Items: May chew fabrics, wallpaper, books, and even food packaging.
βœ“
Indoor Infestation: Attracted to light and warmth, crickets often invade kitchens, basements, and laundries.
βœ“
Fire Hazard: Nesting near electronics or appliances can lead to short circuits in rare cases.
βœ“
Agricultural Disruption: May feed on seedlings and soft garden plants.

Our Cricket Treatment Approach

Our licensed pest control professionals use targeted, species-specific treatments designed to eliminate active infestations and prevent re-entry.

βœ“

Internal & External Surface Sprays

  • Residual insecticides applied around skirting boards, flooring gaps, garages, and patios.
  • External sprays target potential access points, garden beds, and perimeter walls.
βœ“

Wall Void Dusting

  • Especially useful where chirping is heard but the insects are unseen.
βœ“

Cricket Monitoring & Traps

  • Sticky boards used to assess population levels and confirm harbourage areas.
βœ“

Entry Point Exclusion

  • Advice on sealing doors, window frames, vents, and garage gaps.
  • Recommendations for managing light sources that attract crickets at night.
