IS THERE AN EASY WAY TO GET RID OF A CRICKET(S) FROM A BASEMENT?

Question

I HAVE A COUPLE OF CRICKETS IN MY BASEMENT ,IS THE SOMETHING SIMPLE I CAN PUT DOWN THERE THAT MIGHT COAX THEM IN TO LEAVING?

Answer 1

Sprinkle the floor with a mixture of 1 cup Borax laundry soap to 1 tablespoon salt. I cup of this should cover about 10 square feet.

Leave it down for 24+ hours then sweep it up, your crickets will likely have taken a hike.

This also works for fleas and most other bugs.

Also, line the edges of the room with a small amount of this mis to keep bugs out for good. Vacuum it up and re-apply every few months, or more often if the basement is especially musky and/or damp.
