Lost Cricket...

[NorahJan]

So.. I feed my boy his crickets everyday. I've had the occasional cricket jump out when I opened their tub, but have never had a problem because they always end up dead. Though tonight I come home late and there is a LOUD chirping from behind my fridge... like incredibly loud.. Is there a way I can make a trap to lure him out? Or do I have to wait until he dies? It is bothering me so much lol..

Oh boy...maybe you can put some cricket food out for him?? I dunno.

A cat might help with escapees…or not.

Behind the fridge is a great place a fan for fresh air, water in the drip tray and warm. Also to note great for sound next to a wall like singing in the shower.

Welcome to the forum!

It’s a male cricket!
Get one of those sticky traps for mice. Put it near the fridge.

Try setting up a deep container next to the fridge and put some food in it. Put a way for the cricket to get to the top of the container and hope it jumps in.
