My husband and I live in Jacksonville, NC where its in the 90's everyday and the upper 70's at night. 90% humidity or more everyday...... Its been raining off and on and everytime it does the crickets come inside our house for safety. Anyone know of something to put out around the house or anything that might keep them away!?!?!?!? Im tired of stepping on them at 3am tryin to make a bottle for my son lol

Since you have a baby, try some Cedarcide granules around your house, and also try some DE diatamaceous earth powder around the slab and weepholes. These are natural and not so toxic as bug spray. You could also try caulk, but those things are good at outwitting us. Also try reading A Cricket in Times Square to your son, and remember that crickets are good luck. Ha ha. Also, you can use them as a thermometer!

They are getting in through creaks in the house and you need to caulk them up. Then spray around your house with bug killer
