Hi,

Do you know how the crickets died? Have you sprayed recently? Were these crickets that you had purchased as feeders?

If the crickets didnt die because of pesticides, and aren't "wild" crickets, then he should be ok I would think?

I don't really know how they got there. They were just there. Is there anything I can do to help him?

How is he acting? How long ago was it? All I know to suggest would be to bathe him in warm water and see if you can get him to pass them. Has he pooped since he ate them?

It shouldnt hurt him as long as it didnt die from poisoning of any sort.
