Cricket Killed... peace and quiet are back to the compound.
Few things can disturb peace and quiet as much as a cricket in the house. I have high ceilings...30-40 feet and the cricket echoes like an amplifier. I have spent the last 3 days trying to localize this bastard via sounds. The first 2 days were unsuccessful. Today, I was able to localize it to my kitchen ceiling. I saw this tiny bastard sawing his legs together as the sound resonated. This thing was less than a half inch in size. Both times that I was able to purge them from my house, they were on the ceiling, hanging upside down. Anyway, celebration will start early and go late on the compound this evening..with no indoor chirping allowed.
