Cricket Infestation & Treatment Services

How to Identify a Cricket Infestation

Crickets are characterized by their large and strong hind legs, two sets of wings, long antennae, and yellowish-brown or shiny black color. The most apparent sign of crickets in your home is a loud chirping noise and a pest that leaps at your feet. A cricket makes this sound by rubbing its front wings together to attract a mate.

Since they are nocturnal, likely, chirping will only be present at night. They are drawn to moist or warm settings within your home or building and are often found in basements and garages. If you see signs of a cricket infestation, don’t hesitate to contact us for our cricket pest control in Virginia.

Tips for Preventing Crickets

Mow your lawn regularly and keep foliage trimmed.
Avoid creating piles of wood or leaves.
Seal cracks and crevices around your home.

				We had the same experience as another reviewer. We called on a Thursday and got a quote. We called on Saturday to accept the quote, and was told to wait for a call back. We left a message on Sunday. On Monday we got our call back that explained that they only have an answering service on the weekend, there wasn't anyone from the company to answer our call. 



Also, the quote we received a few days ago would be at least 50% more money, and this second person said the first person misunderstood what services they offered.

There are lots of pest control companies - I would not call these people again. read less

				This company is exceptional with customer service. Every time I pick up the phone with any issue, a technician is quickly sent out to address my concern. Speaking specifically on my experience, my technician Brian is not only professional and thorough (emphasis on the thorough), but is very knowledgeable in most concerns I discuss with him. And if he doesn’t quite know the answer, he’ll do his due diligence and get an answer. My pest pros is certainly worth the money because of employees like him. I love how they come out quarterly, but if I have absolutely ANY concern,... read moreThis company is exceptional with customer service.

I love how they come out quarterly, but if I have absolutely ANY concern, they’ll come out and get everything squared away for me. Every time I call, i am always met with a professional and courteous conversation. I truly have nothing negative to say. We’ve had them for a little over a year now for every preventative maintenance you can think of, and I’ve called them out to take care of carpenter bees, wasps nests, chipmunks lol They are great, they do everything. read less

				Our family had a positive experience with My Pest Pros (MPP) in removing a large hornet's nest (soccer-ball size) from a tree just above the driveway of our townhome. After looking at different reviews and comparing vendors, I decided to try MPP as a first-time customer. Lots of pluses. First, Kayla (receptionist) was friendly and professional during the intake call on Friday to assess the problem, ask for the location of the hornet's nest, and provide an estimated time window on the next business day (Monday). We requested a one-time service payment option by check. Second, the staff person (Hunter)... read moreOur family had a positive experience with My Pest Pros (MPP) in removing a large hornet's nest (soccer-ball size) from a tree just above the driveway of our townhome.

We requested a one-time service payment option by check. Second, the staff person (Hunter) arrived on time (8:30am) and called me 15 minutes in advance. He completed the job in about 40 minutes by spraying chemicals to reduce the number of live hornets, sawed off the entire branch of the crape myrtle tree, and then cleared the entire branch with the soccer-ball size hornet's nest attached. Third, he explained we were lucky the hornets were not bald-faced hornets (which continue to attack you even after the nest is removed). Although it was $275 to complete the work, it was worth it to remove the hornet's nest and gain peace of mind. We would use their services again! read less

				We had a recent yellow jacket problem and kept finding them all over our basement. Pest pros came out quickly and took care of the problem without any issues, and their prices were better than 2 other companies I called. Will use Pest Pros again if we have any issues in the future with any types of pests. Thanks George and Pest Pros!!!
