I just moved to a new place and am getting the yard landscaped. The Black-Field Crickets are in the ground here everywhere. I mean thousands. They jump away when I till the ground and I am absolutely disgusted. Almost afraid to open the front door, I ordered a pest company. Now they get killed, when they come close to the house.
Although I only moved 20 miles from my old place, I've never seen any there and am wondering, what is it, that attracts them here so much?
I would do anything to get rid of these ugly bugs, they don't make my yard work very enjoyable.
