Mole crickets are common turfgrass pests. Three species of mole crickets are conside
red pests in the Southeast United States.: tawny, southern, and short-winged infiltrator crickets.
This insect’s "hands" are inimitably adapted for digging, allowing it to subway through the dirt. Sod farms, home lawns, golf courses, and pastures can all play host to mole crickets. Any species of turfgrass can be spoiled by mole crickets, but they predominantly like bahiagrass and bermudagrass.
Mole crickets make tunnels in the ground, severing grass roots and causing the earth to swelling upwards. They also eat the roots and shoots of grass. Mole cricket harm looks like ugly brown patches. Predators such as raccoons and armadillos may further dig up the sod to snack on the crickets.
