| | The field cricket (Gryllus campestris) is a larger insect than the former, and of a darker color. | | | The female deposits her eggsabout 200 in numberon the ground, and when hatched the larvae, which resemble the perfect insect except in the absence of wings, form burrows for themselves in which they pass the, winter. | | | It is exceedingly fierce and voracious, and is usually caught by inserting a stem of grass into its hole, which being seized, is retained till the insect is brought to the surface. |

| | Cricket Control (Nebline Article) University of Nebraska Cooperative Extension in Lancaster County |
| | Most people think that insect outbreaks are related to weather conditions, but increases in the abundance of food and habitat, or decreases in natural enemies are just as likely to trigger population explosions. | | | Many insects have cycles when their populations increase temporarily in response to favorable conditions and later adjust to more normal levels. | | | The truth is that, with the exception of economic pests, most insects are not well studied and entomologists don't know for sure what conditions trigger insect outbreaks. |
