Man Accidentally Unleashes 250 Crickets In His House And People Are In Tears With Laughter

I have a similar cricket related tale. We kept a tarantula, who lived on the things. We had a secure container of crickets. However, when going on holiday for a week we thought it was kindest to let them loose outside rather than leaving them to starve, assuming they wouldnt survive the cool evenings - wrongly. We returned to find there had been an unexpected heatwave and the crickets had thrived and multiplied, infesting a dozen or so adjacent gardens.they were driving the neighbours mad with the noise at night (Crickets are not native in the UK). We kept very quiet as to where this unnatural plague had come from.

"2/5 stars. Crickets were bouncing out of the box as soon as I opened it and they released a plague upon my house. Would not buy again."

We don't like cricket, Ah, oh no. We love it.

my horrible cricket story - had a box of a thousand that I emptied into a large garbage can. This has always worked - until I got a new cat. When I wasn't looking, said cat jumped up on the garbage, knocking it over. I heard the crash, but by the time I got to the can, about half of them had gotten out. I lived in a very old apartment which had odd little holes in the corners of the closets. The can was near the hall closet, so most of them headed in their since it was dark. I don't know how many escaped into the holes, but the neighbors flipped. Of course I didn't mention that I had 6 lizards, and a dozen frogs, and played dumb when the rental office started phoning around asking who had lizards. We were finding crickets for months.

Moisten cloth towels, and wring them out. Roll them up loosely and lay them against the baseboards in the rooms where you know crickets are, leave them overnight. In the morning, the crickets will be under the towels.

Now I understand why my husband says, “Just because somethings on sale doesn’t mean that we need it.”

My very smart, very organised best friend was slightly flustered in her first week at her new job and accidentally left the lid loose on one if the cricket containers at the end of the day. The next morning she came in to find it empty and not a cricket in site. The had all successfully escaped, gotten into the vent system and migrated overnight. Three years later, when she moved onto another job, the company STILL had a cricket infestation 😄😄 Oops!

order lizards

Once I had a similar issue. I thought our cricket eggs will hatch the next day so I left the nest freely beside the heater. Well, they were born around midnight. IU realised the catastrophy when one lil' bastard came into my mouth while sleeping. One thing to mention - crickets in a closed room are louder at night than a Jumbo jet...

It pisses me off that people think that living creatures are just any old materials for their own selfish needs. It disgusts me that they are sold and posted in boxes, like it's of no consequence.

the cats are looking forward to the next shipment

where did you order them from?

Just release the lizard! :D

The cats had the time of their lives I bet. :D

Omfg..

those sticky traps for mice...don't work that well with mice..but work fantastic with crickets. since we had 100 crickets escape as well....lol. i did enjoy this story

Years ago the seniors at my high school released over 2000 crickets in the school as a prank. We were finding cricketsin the oddest places for about 2 weeks😂

Let them go and open up a haunted house.

"the lizard, whom we named holly..." as a writer, he should know this is incorrect. the lizard is not the object of the sentence so it wouldnt get a "whom"
