How do you get rid of....?

Baby Crickets. I came home to find 4 of them hanging out on my window.. then I found one on my couch, then my wall.. I walked down the hall to get my landlord and there's some in the hallway. She said.. Oh just vacum them up, I really don't think that will work. But she said she will call the bug guy in the morning. I'm finding them here and there in my house, Only in the living room so far, I've sprayed "Kill zone" brug spray, But I'm just creeped out.. anyone have a home remedy?

Or has had a problem like this?

Any help would be appreciated.

Tina

    seal your house, get a dehumifier to get rid of the dampness they like, or freeze em out and make it 0 degrees kelvin, or get a whole bunch of frogs, if you like frogs better.

    what ever you you do dont use poison toxins because they can soak into furniture and cause you to get sick the best thing to do is spray pesticides outside the house or seal it outside the house because this will prevent them from coming in and the others getting out so they will stay in one place so you can easily squash them.
