Cave cricket

Dark, damp, and cool environments such as caves, basements, crawl spaces, and under logs or stones outdoors.

Omnivorous and scavenger; feeds on organic material including fabric, fungi, decaying plant matter, and occasionally other insects.

Nocturnal and flightless; known for leaping high and far when startled, often toward the source of disturbance due to poor vision.

Harmless to humans as they do not bite or transmit disease, though they can become nuisance pests indoors by damaging fabrics and paper goods.
