Cave crickets are larger versions of normal crickets and, much like the smaller crickets they resemble, are relatively harmless. The cave cricket’s chirping can be heard to a range of 300 feet. Cave crickets are about 3 feet long.

Cave crickets are mostly harmless, noisy insects and rarely attack living creatures. If attacked, a cave cricket uses its powerful legs to kick its opponents before hopping away.
