Why Are They Attracted to Your Home or Yard?
Crickets are primarily attracted to environments that offer warmth, moisture, and food. During the summer and fall, they may seek shelter in your home or yard to escape predators or harsh weather.
Outdoor lighting, tall grass, and organic debris can also attract crickets to your yard, where they may eventually find their way indoors.
To reduce the likelihood of crickets becoming unwanted guests, consider reducing moisture levels, trimming vegetation, and sealing any gaps or cracks in your home’s foundation.
By understanding what attracts these common crickets, you can take proactive steps to minimize their presence and maintain a cricket-free home and yard.

Common Crickets Found in Massachusetts Homes
The most common crickets that invade homes in our region include:
Yellowish-brown with long antennae, house crickets often make their way indoors in search of warmth and light. Their loud nighttime chirping can be particularly disruptive.
Field Crickets – Darker and larger, these outdoor crickets may wander inside during dry or cooler weather. Once inside, they can be difficult to catch.
Camel Crickets (Cave Crickets) – Wingless and humpbacked, camel crickets are silent but unsettling to encounter. They favor cool, damp spaces like basements, crawl spaces, and garages.
