How to Catch a Cricket

    • 1). Locate the cricket and attempt to sneak up on it. Listen for the chirping of the cricket and zero in on it. Once you are sure you are in the general area of the cricket you should be able to see it. A cricket in your house may be hiding under the furniture, so you may have to move the furniture. House crickets often hide near fireplaces. Field crickets can be found in tall grasses, mulch piles, rock piles or logs.

    • 2). Lower your bucket over the cricket slowly and quietly. Any sudden movement on your part may spook the cricket and cause it to jump up to 3 feet in the air. Crickets can jump up to 30 times their body length. The wider the opening is on the bucket the better chance you have of catching the cricket.

    • 3). Set newspaper down next to the bucket. make sure that the newspaper is big enough to cover the opening of the bucket. One page of newspaper will be a good size. Carefully slide the bucket along the ground so that the newspaper is under the opening. Once the newspaper is under the opening of the bucket, wrap it up around the sides of the bucket and tie it down with your fishing line. The cricket should be secure inside the bucket.
