As someone who has to buy crickets for my gecko, and sometimes they escape, I feel your pain. You feel so helpless, incapable of locating them. The struggle is real!

Noooooo let the cricket stay! Let the cricket stay!! (this is me protesting - y'all could have your own TLC show if you play your cards right) Also stomping the spotted lantern fly to Slayer is sending me.

UPDATE: He's gone. Or he's chosen to silently stalk me. I really don't care which, just glad it's quiet.

I love you and this story, Charlie. Even more here than when you first told me. You are one of a kind and thanks for going deep. I would definitely be down there angrily trying to get rid of the thing in any way possible.

One of my greatest accomplishments this year was removing a living cricket from my second floor apartment. Last year I couldn’t take a shower for two days after finding one in the tub, so this is a big step forward!
