Cut the top off of a 2 liter soda bottle. Put a piece of tomato in the bottom, then put the top back on, but inverted, so it looks like a lawbstah trap. The crickets will go in after the tomato, but not be able to get back out of the opening. Set them free in your neighbor's yard (the one you don't like, preferably) 'cos its bad luck to kill them.
