Desperate to catch a Cricket
 

Not fishin related, but is about catchin.
We have a slick and elusive cricket in our bathroom that has been driving us INSANE the past few nights. I have seen the little bugger and pulled up all the base boards, but can't get at em. Any advice on how to bait it out to squash em?????
Desperately seeking sleep.......
Thanks much.

boric acid powder
safe...harmless to humans
kills bugs like roaches and crickets

Since you plan on ending the poor little critters life, how about Raid or equivalent?

Edit: I like the above idea better.

My cat loves to eat 'em. Let me ask how her what she would charge for a house call.

Tell us where you got your big fish first.

A cricket in your house is good luck.Leave him alone,he'll go on his way.

rav,

does borax (the stuff you get at the super market) contain boric acid? I believe it does.

Thankx.
Mission accomplished. Sucka came out of the bathroom and hid under the bed mocking me. At 4am this morn a solid blast of hairspray and it made its last chirp.:nailem:

Hair spray what is it..?
Hair in a can..?
You smoothered him in a Ramones do..

Did you use the Bic in conjunction with the Hairspray....

I use to buy crickets by the thousands... the noises they made..

1000 crickets cost $22...

(I had LOTS of lizards and geckos etc)

Easy way to take care of escapee's? Accidentally let a couple geckos escape.. We had one running wild around the house (and my grandmothers side of the house - duplex) for 2 years.

You can get the little green ones for like $5!
