Crickets are good luck, keep it, eventually it will move on.

There's nothing that can't be solved with a good chunk of C4!!

There's only one solution, burn the place to the ground.

Kill that thing with extreme prejudice. I'm thinking at least 1 20lb propane tank explosion should get it. On the safe side, maybe 2 tanks.

I got some RAID, he is very quiet now. :)

Under normal conditions I would have caught him and put him outside but he was under the edge of my skylight and I don't have a ladder to get up there so he had to die.

I have two of them, happily chirping outside the front of my door, somewhere in the grass. It's driving me nuts.

Yup, sometimes they get nutty, especially when 2 or more males are competing.

I was in a crappy hotel in Baltimore one night, and there was a cricket inside the door. There was an opening in the bottom of the steel door it got into somehow, and I tried everything to kill that bastard... tried pouring boiling hot water through the opening to steam him, anything I could find to spray in there, nothing worked. Drove me freakin' insane.
