There are some types of pests that come about and that means the seasons are changing. The weather plays a huge role in the existence of the life cycle of many pests. Some pests can only exist in the warm weather while others are equipped to last all year long. When it comes to crickets you know that the noisier they get the closer it has become to the fall weather. The start of the summer is when the crickets will start to hatch as the weather begins to warm up. The summer is perfect for them to grow and thrive. Like many pests they can anticipate the coming cold months and start to do what is necessary to prepare for the winter. One such measure is the need for crickets to reproduce so that they can continue the life cycle the following year.

Why Do Crickets Chirp in the Fall?: As the weather starts to change, pests and other species will start their preparations for the winter.

This is why crickets are noisy when the end of summer is here and the fall weather starts. The male crickets are the ones that are making all the noise and for good reason. They are the ones that have to search for a mate. They are able to do this by making the chirping sound they are most known for. They are able to make the sound when they rub their wings together.
