How do you catch crix???

I had the unfortunate experience of receiving a damaged box of 1000 crix, and they are now EVERYWHERE in my house, aside from catching them by hand - how the heck do you catch those stupid things! I am sick and tired of having them crawl on me at night, and I'm about ready to move out just to get away from them! I have tried bowls of water (works REALLY well- but they drown overnight) and I (this is horrible) have used the shop-vac to get them too - any ideas??

If you don't mind catching them over a period of time - cool down the area where they are - then put a space heater with some upside down egg cartons in front. During the day (when they are less active) you can shake them into a container.

If you don't mind not using them - sticky cockroach or mouse traps are supposed to work. Just ignore the looks you get when you buy them!

I feel your pain .The same thing happened to me except my box wasn't damaged i'm just clumsy and dropped them with the box open. Only a 500 order though.
