Today, I had a box full of crickets in my room. I sealed it up with tape and went to take a shower. When I returned, I found that the box had popped open, releasing almost all of the crickets. I can still hear the chirping. FML

All you people wondering why OP is "collecting" crickets... Seriously? I feel like it isn't that hard to figure out that he owns a reptile.

As a reptile owner myself, I know the pain of lost crickets. I would recommend you place a bunch of glueboards to catch as many as possible.

Q: If you’ve got a cricket ball in your left hand, and a cricket ball in your right hand, what have you got? A: A really, really big cricket!

Lol, I've owned a lizard for 12 years. That's happened to me sooo many times.

When we had bearded dragons they would never catch all their crickets and one or two would hide out in the tank for awhile. Awkward silences in our house were so cliche...

They can live for a surprisingly long time. There's one in my window well that's been there for weeks. Good luck not going insane like I did lol

I have a really irrational phobia of crickets, and that just.... No.

Try seeing if the place you got the crickets from has alternate transport containers. The pet store my mom works at sends the crickets home in the same kind of plastic bag used for fish, but if someone requests it she can put them in a new cricket keeper and they can pay for both at the same time. She even has regulars who bring their own cricket keepers in to make it easier on everyone. Good luck getting rid of them, OP!
