How clean do you keep your Cricket Cages?

[Escalade]

I have about 700 pinhead crickets in 10inch by 8inch plastic tank, they have been in there for about 5 days and the floor is littered with black specs and random dead crickets, but how am I supposed to clean it? Theres alot of crickets not on the cardboard alot of them run around on the ground, is it bad to leave it like that?

How do you guys usually clean your cricket cages? I have read that you need to clean them every other day but that seems like a big pain in the you know what
