    Keeping pet Crickets.

    Anyone miss that tropical evening sound of Crickets cricketing?

    Bought a tub full of reptile food aka live cricketts today as an early Xmas present for myself.

    Did a quick 5 minutes google research before parting with my three English pound coins.

    The positives...

    Cheaper than a holiday to the tropics





    The negatives..


    However, the primary danger associated with crickets is not their bite but the parasites and diseases they carry, like escherichia coli and salmonella. Cricket feces contain worms that may cause painful sores and rashes on human skin if contacted. These insects can also make you sick with symptoms similar to the flu

    Cricket music makes for nice sleep. Will you be running up to the bait shop buying more every couple of months?
