Three, at one time, jumped out of the light fixture over my desk.  Two landed on the keyboard and one on my shoulder.

No, I don't think balefire is in the least bit extreme.

Roald Dahl gave me a lasting love of crickets-James and the Giant Peach ya see. Also, would it be balefire to all crickets or just the ones in Texas/your town/ your garden?

And i am totally jealous with the heat thing...it's early spring down here and while the weather has been good (like 12-15 degrees (C)) it gets cold quick... *Longs for a summer which he'll miss by going to Europe for Xmas :D/:(* I is so confused ;)

But what if you balefire'd it do hard that you destroyed the ancestors of that cricket, and that cricket is the king of ALL crickets and it was the ancestor of all humanity!?

We were blessed with a very cool, very wet June and July - almost a foot of rain over the annual average.

However, there are side effects.

And I include this last one for the picture, mostly.  It looks like my office every morning when I get to work:

Yes, I am sick of crickets.
