Of all the troublesome pests South Louisiana homeowners encounter, the mole cricket might be the most destructive of all. These strange insects are related to the regular crickets that we're used to hearing on summer nights, but they spend most of their lives below the soil surface like moles. Unfortunately, their burrowing habits wreak havoc on lawns and gardens. As they use their large, clawed front legs to tunnel, they damage plant roots and disrupt the soil, destroying the turf around them as they go.
Mole crickets can be a real headache for homeowners, but you're not alone in the fight to effectively combat them. At Lobb-Alexis, we've spent the last 40 years perfecting the art of lawn care, including powerful mole cricket control services. The longer an infestation is allowed to continue, the harder it is to terminate. Take action today to stop the cycle and restore vitality to your lawn!
Mole cricket activity ramps up significantly in spring and early summer when mating season begins. That said, here in the Deep South, it's not uncommon to experience two generations per year, doubling the potential for destruction. Timing is of the essence when it comes to lawn pest management, so call our team right away if you notice any of the following signs:

The key to controlling mole cricket populations is understanding their life cycle. These pests are at their most destructive in their nymph stage. With each successive stage, they become more resilient and harder to control. By the time mole cricket adults emerge, the damage can be extensive.
Our experts know when peak mating and egg-laying season begins, so we can target treatments to kill mole crickets before a new batch of eggs hatches. We can also target adult mole cricket infestations with industry - leading insecticides tailor-made for these stubborn and destructive pests.
