Crickets are one of the more common home invaders during this time of the year. K-State Crop Entomologist Jeff Whitworth says the most annoying thing about crickets is the noise.

Whitworth says house crickets can survive year-round inside. Whitworth says the best control for crickets is any insecticide that has crickets on the label. He says to spray a six to 12-foot perimeter around the house and inside any cracks or crevices.
