my crickets died, or else moved away...
This guy made a home for himself out in an abandoned old barn on the edge of a swamp in 1987. He was pretty disappointed in himself and hoped that nobody would ever see him. There were some crickets there that he sometimes saw, and always heard; making noises that sounded like tiny car horns, some right nearby, some further away. In 1995, he found an old bottle of windex in the woods and he poured some on the floor to make his house smell better. the crickets stopped making noises after that, and he decided he may have accidentally killed them, or else they just didn't like the windex at all, and left.
