Awakened at 0-dark-thirty by a loud buzzing sound. Initially thought "oh-%!#@ the AC is going out!" Checked it, fine. Realize it is probably a cricket in the house. Eventually track the bugger down to being inside the under-stair cubby space that we use as our firearms safe. Sure enough, after pulling out a few rifle cases and boxes of ammo, I find that the blighter is in there, but I realized that I hadn't anything in hand to kill-or-capture the critter. So ... I open up the nearest ammo box; take out a plastic case of 22LR; and whammo.
So yeah, took an entire 100-round box of 22LR to kill a cricket.
