They are Among the Most Destructive Pests!
Mole crickets are among the most destructive lawn pests, as they tunnel underneath your lawn and feed on the root system.
The damage from their tunnelling and feeding activities leaves you with brown patches and dead grass.
Animals like raccoons, armadillos, and birds will dig up your lawn looking to feast on mole crickets - making things even more expensive.
The damage left behind by mole crickets can make your lawn more susceptible to weed invasions and other pests.
They do their damage at night and spend the day underground. You may not know you have them until the damage has begun.
Call us right away. Effective mole cricket control should start as soon as you spot any damage to your lawn.

This involves beneficial cultural practices such as:
Mole crickets earn their name from their burrowing habits and mole-like appearance, with front legs that are well adapted for digging. They are commonly found in the Southeast United States. Specifically, there are three species of mole crickets that are considered to be the most problematic.
They do most of their damage from late August to early October. They are also nocturnal, so they do most of their feeding and tunnelling at night. The tunnelling activities of mole crickets can be very disruptive to many plants. They loosen the soil around the root system, causing the roots to dry out.
