Well, I can't be sure they even get in the house.  The one I hear from
my bedroom
could be in the basement or it could it right outside.  A cricket in
the basement is
of no consequence to me.  Maybe you get more of them; I can see where
that
would be troublesome.

Now, the brown ants in the kitchen and the mice (anywhere)!   Well,
that's just the War
on Vermin.
