LOL!
I wish.. some of them are about half the size of the Fires themselves!! :-@ :-@ :-@
Whenever I've seen the random rogue one in the bird room I quickly grab the shop vac and suck them up.. :shock:
They are too big for me to attempt to squash and they are very... crunchy
I got in the bathtub the other night and one was in there waiting to greet me.. creepy little f'ers.

Ughh! They sound pretty disgusting. I hate crickets anyway...so oily and smelly. Though I do like the sound they make.

You can come and get the ones around my house.
They keep me from sleeping. So even if it is HOT at night, I have to close up the house to keep from hearing the racket they make.

Now you are making me think that I might be able to breed my fire finches.
I just have to get them thru their baycox treatment.

We have plenty, thanks :wink: I can hear them playing their music right now. Ahh. Soothing sounds to sleep by. :)
