I heard you can use the fluff of your pillow to catch them because they get stuck on it.

Get a water bottle and only put a little bit of water in it. Place a couple around wherever you want to catch them. I guess they can sense water because I had a water bottle that was on its side that had a little bit of water in it and I found 2 escaped crickets in it.

Since there is little water in it, they don’t drown. They cant get out because when the bottle is on its side, the mouth of the bottle is raised on a smooth surface. So smooth, that crickets can’t climb up it.

Hope this helped.
