Loud chirping is often the first sign homeowners notice. While noise suggests presence, our physical inspection confirms where crickets are gathering.
Chirping at night
You hear loud chirping around your yard, patio or exterior walls during warm summer evenings.
Gathering around lights
Large numbers collect under porch lights or street lamps during the warm summer evenings.
Jumping in the garage
You find crickets moving across the floor when opening your garage or working in storage areas.
Hiding in landscape gravel
Crickets are frequently found gathering in decorative gravel beds and rock landscaping near the foundation.
Resting under doorways
Crickets often gather near entry doors under exterior porch lights that stay on at night.
Finding them indoors
Finding crickets inside living spaces means some have made their way past doors, screens, or garage entries.
Why crickets become an issue
Crickets are drawn to bright exterior lights at night during summer in the Las Vegas valley. In certain years, local populations increase significantly and large groups gather around foundations, entryways and patios.
Our Quarterly Home Pest Plan covers cricket control using regular exterior perimeter treatments and interior crack-and-crevice applications when needed. We treat foundation lines, gravel beds and entry points to manage their numbers around your home.
Locating where crickets gather
Our technicians inspect the exterior to find what is drawing them to your house. This helps us decide where to place our targeted treatments.
Treating for seasonal crickets
We use the findings from our inspection to apply treatments right where crickets congregate. You manage the lights, and we handle the applications.
Summer crickets around valley homes
Crickets are drawn to lights at night in summer and gather in large numbers around valley properties during high-population years. Turning off unused outdoor lights or switching to lower-wattage bulbs near entryways and garages helps reduce the swarms attracted to your home.
Because crickets gather near exterior walls, our quarterly plan applies targeted perimeter treatments around the foundation to address activity in your yard.
Getting ready for our visit
We explain what to expect prior to our visit. Review these simple steps to prepare your home for treatment.
Clearing the perimeter
We send written preparation instructions detailing how to move items away from your exterior walls so we can access the foundation.
Allowing yard access
The technician needs clear access to your side yards, gates and the areas around your exterior lighting.
Managing pets and children
You keep children and pets out of treated areas following the directions on your written reentry document.
Following reentry guidelines
We provide written reentry instructions that specify when you can resume using treated areas.
Planning for follow-ups
The technician explains the results you can expect and whether your property needs additional visits to handle heavy summer populations.
Making your home less attractive to crickets
These steps help minimize the numbers drawn to your property, though prevention alone does not end an active issue.
- Turn off unnecessary exterior lights at night during the summer months.
- Seal the gaps around your exterior doors and install tight-fitting door sweeps.
- Fix any leaking outdoor faucets or irrigation lines near the house.
- Trim shrubs and plants so they do not rest against the stucco walls.
- Check window screens for fit and repair any tears in the mesh.
- Keep the areas under your porch and patio furniture clear of clutter.

Questions about our cricket services
How do you handle large groups of crickets?
We focus on exterior foundation lines where crickets gather. Technicians apply perimeter treatments around the slab and granular products in landscape beds to target cricket populations outdoors.
What about children and pets?
We follow all product labels carefully. You will receive written instructions on how to keep your dogs out of the yard during the application. The technician provides clear reentry guidelines based on the specific treatments applied.
What should I do before you arrive?
You receive written preparation instructions before your visit. Clearing items from the foundation and unlocking exterior gates helps our technician access all treatment areas.
What is the price for cricket treatments?
The price depends on the size of your property and the treatment approach needed. We provide a clear estimate after inspecting the activity. You review and approve the cost before our technicians start any work.
Will the crickets be gone after one visit?
During peak summer months, large populations often require ongoing maintenance. Your technician explains the current activity level and advises how many follow-up visits to expect. Not every pest problem is resolved with a single application.
Why are there so many crickets right now?
Crickets are highly attracted to light and often gather in large numbers during warm summer evenings. Turning off your porch lights helps reduce the numbers drawn to your doors, though prevention alone will not clear out an active group.
