I hope you're still fast asleep!

Awwww, Sofia. Tell her we all love her.

Argh about the ants. Late spring and summer is when crickets (thankfully silent) suddenly start appearing in my sunroom and basement, and I've begun seeing them. I spray, I've filled in every crack, I've reminded the Cricket Gods that this is a House of Death for them, but still they appear every year. As Galadriel so wisely said, we're all "fighting the long defeat". Thank goodness for autumn.

Off to see your pics!

Silent? Are they cave or camel crickets? Looong legs..jump about three feet?

That's the one! In my area they're known as 'sprickets'.

We get them in our basement and the first floor. Like you said, late summer and early fall. We’ve already seen one - too early -we set sticky traps down and spray eco smart since we have dogs. I really do dislike them

Well, it's 4:45 pm here, so just about done with the day. It was a good one, though.

I will pass on your love to Sofia. :DD

Ugh, those sound awful!
