Okay . . . Get Ortho's Bug B Gon Max Insect Killer for Lawns.
All these words may not be on the package, but this product works for tons of bugs.
You may also have grubs that this would take care of.
This product is granules and]must be used with a spreader.
Follow the directions exactly.
This works for approximately 3 months, so don't overdo it.

Don't stress yourself by checking your lawn ten times a day.
Give the product a chance to work.
This definitely will solve your problem, so like I said --
try to be a little patient.
I would also re-apply it after three months.

You might also speak to your neighbors that surround you;
on an interior lot that would be five other houses.
Trust me when I say it isn't only your lawn.
They need to be proactive as well.

By the way, you definitely have mole crickets and they are common in Zoysia grass.
