    I need some help, what is the best way to get crickets out of my house (other than using my sneakers to kill them!!) . Every night I see one or two in the house and it's driving me crazy. Thanks for any help you can offer!

    I thought it was only for crickets living on the hearth.

    Not sure if North Carolina has any, but in the midwest we always cut up a Hedge apple and put it around. Got rid of the crickets real quick.

    Is that anything like a road apple?

    LOLOL no but another name for a hedge apple is a horse apple.

    Tried to copy a picture of a hedge apple, but this computer challenged brain didn't have the time today

    Yeah I've heard that too but I killed them all last summer and have been killing them for a month now. I'm not one to believe in old wives tales much anyway!! I'll take my chances rather than live with them in the house!! :)

    Thanks for the advice!!
