Photo Album: Condo Overrun with Cave Crickets in Matwan, NJ
That's a Lot of Cave Crickets
As soon as we opened the storage closet we found a large amount of cave crickets inside.
Not Sprickets!
Many people refer to them as "sprickets," because they look like a cross between a spider and cricket. Truth is, they aren't arachnids.
Got in Under the Door
After concluding our inspection, we determined that the cave crickets infested the closet by going underneath the door. We brought this to the owners attention and, since the door was old, the owner was going to replace it once we finished treating.
Treatment for Cave Crickets
We treated the area with a liquid residual that not only rapidly exterminates the camel crickets, but also prevents them from reinfesting the area.
Treating the Exterior
As a precaution, we also treated the entire exterior with another liquid residual and applied a granular bait to the landscape areas.
