My wife successfully released close to one thousand nearly adult crickets in my critter room today...
Thankfully, I planned for just such an event in building it, so they cannot escape the room. I double doored the entry way (air lock style!) and have a . and sealed every single nook and cranny with caulk when I built it. all HVAC ducts have critter proof 100 micron mesh covers.
Now the issue of what to do with all these loose crickets I do not feel safe feeding to my pets.
My solution?
Free Range House geckos!
I had the wife go pick a few up. They are now enjoying the critter room immensely. One is currently exploring his way across the monitor as I write.
