What is a good way to catch/collect the uneaten crickets(live and jumpy) at the end of the day? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

With your hands, just stating the blatently obvious lol. Also don't leave them in there all day, 15-20 minutes is more than enough.

Thanks, I have been doing that. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips or tricks at doing it efficiently.

They like to go into dark places so if you put a toilet paper or paper towel tube in there, they will usually go into it on their own. You can then pick it up and shake back into your container.
