For those who don’t know, central Texas gets a major cricket infestation every year, typically around early September. It’s so bad, you literally crunch as you walk over dead crickets. They give the mob of grackles something to do.

So this guy is selling a pest and robbing the natural predator of the pests of their source of nutrition.

However, if Mohammed needs a logo, why not a cartoon cricket with Buddy Holly glasses on the label? Yeah, well, that’ll be the day.

And the stench is horrific.

And maybe you can even mail a box of those crunchy creatures to some special person in your life who is far away, (as alluded to in this youtube song)...

Sounds like the fish fly infestation we get every year in SE Michigan near the St. Clair river. They get so thick on the roadways that your car will slide as if on snow when you try to stop. I once nearly put a golf cart into a marina down there doing just that. BTW, tried roasted crickets once during survival school. Not bad if seasoned, kinda greasy. The exoskeletons make them crunchy.
