That incessant chirping keeping you awake at night is more than an annoyance—it's a sign that crickets have found ideal conditions in your home and are attracting other predatory pests. House crickets, camel crickets, and field crickets invade Indianapolis basements, crawl spaces, and ground-level rooms seeking moisture, darkness, and shelter, especially during late summer and fall when outdoor conditions become less favorable. Males chirp constantly to attract mates, and that rhythmic noise can drive homeowners to frustration, particularly when multiple crickets establish themselves in bedrooms, living areas, or near HVAC vents that amplify the sound throughout your home.
Beyond the sleep disruption, crickets cause surprising damage and create secondary pest problems. They chew through fabrics, paper, cardboard, and even synthetic materials, leaving holes in stored clothing, documents, and boxes in your basement or garage. Their presence attracts spiders, centipedes, and other predatory insects that feed on crickets, essentially inviting more pests into your home. Camel crickets, those humpbacked, spider-like crickets common in damp basements, don't chirp but multiply rapidly in dark, humid environments and startle homeowners by jumping erratically when disturbed.
Crickets reproduce quickly, with females laying hundreds of eggs in cracks, crevices, and moist soil near your foundation. What starts as a few crickets can become a full-blown infestation within weeks as new generations hatch and mature. DIY methods like sticky traps catch only a handful of visible crickets without addressing the moisture issues, entry points, and breeding sites that sustain the population. The chirping, fabric damage, and predatory pests will continue until you address the root causes professionally.
Our cricket control program targets active infestations while addressing the underlying moisture and entry point issues that attract these pests, using proven treatments and exclusion methods to eliminate crickets and prevent them from returning to your Indianapolis home.

Cricket control services typically range from $150 to $350 depending on the severity of your infestation, property size, and whether moisture remediation or exclusion work is needed. We provide free inspections to assess your specific situation and offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what to expect before we begin treatment.
If you're hearing constant or multiple crickets chirping, finding crickets in various rooms (not just near an entry door), or discovering them regularly in your basement or crawl space, you likely have an established infestation rather than occasional stragglers. Seeing camel crickets in groups or finding cricket damage on fabrics and paper goods also indicates a breeding population that needs professional treatment.
Crickets are attracted to dark, moist environments, making basements ideal habitats. High humidity from poor ventilation, water leaks, or drainage issues creates perfect conditions for crickets to thrive and reproduce. They enter through foundation cracks, gaps around pipes and utilities, poorly sealed doors, and window wells. Eliminating crickets long-term requires addressing both the pest population and the moisture conditions that attract them.
Most homeowners notice significantly reduced or eliminated chirping within 24-48 hours after treatment as crickets come into contact with treated areas and the population declines rapidly. Complete elimination typically takes 5-7 days as crickets hiding in wall voids and deep crevices are exposed to the treatment. If moisture and entry points are addressed during service, new crickets won't replace the ones eliminated, giving you lasting peace and quiet.
