just cardboard box probably wouldn't be of much interest to a cricket or a spider, but "lots of" them form a habitat, and an undisturbed habitat is often where such animals aggregate. some kinds of cardboard taste good to some animals such as silverfish and cockroaches, so they may feed and breed there. crickets like, and can live on just apple for some time, so apple-boxes might increase the visitors. if you really don't want such nice little things in the garage, get rid of the boxes - "spray" is bad for most lifeforms, including people.
Most definitely. If you've ever been in a store that sells live crickets, you'd find that they feed them cardboard. Crickets eat vegetation and cardboard is made from wood so it makes a tasty snack for them.
If it has one in all it really is decrease back legs lacking then kill it with out delay and placed it out of it really is misery. It ought to damage extraordinarily for his leg to be lengthy previous.. yet in case you actually do not wanna kill it then get a tumbler or a cup and an envelope or another skinny yet good piece of paper. placed the jar over the cricket and gently slide the paper between the cricket and the wall. the cricket will fall or hop into the jar. be particular to carry the paper adverse to the rim of the jar/cup/glass/etc and toss the cricket outdoors.

Yes, the boxes carries dust mites..it attracts al kind of bags.
want to get rid of them? first of all, remove that beautiful house you made for them. (all of those boxes!)
then you can lay out some lettuce and whatnot with a touch of pesticide on it. they nip at the lettuce, digest the poison and die.
