A Locust in the house is a million in the fields. (A Locust is a type of grasshopper.) Even the Old Testament speaks of "a plague of locusts."

A green grasshopper is good luck and prosperity. A brown one is the opposite.

If you feed the cricket, you will have a good harvest or you will get some money, I think. Can't recall which of my Chinese friends told me that one.
