This live in the wild, underneath the ground while the other share your home with you. Both are cricket.

I hate the African Field Cricket. They can wake a whole neighborhood.

It's not a cricket. This one is not edible while crickets are.

The youngest of cricket is bigger than the most matured of this one.

They are not the same.

Oga na cricket be this. It's just in that family. House rat and bush rat no be rat all them be? 😕😕

Nta:tam in ibio language, not edible down here.

OndoRaph:
That's true. And crickets don't live with humans in rooms.

Crickets are even edible but that insect is not.

You might not want to eat it but it belongs to the cricket family. In Yorùbá, crickets are called 'ìrẹ̀' but this common member of the family can easily be found at home, in the bush, just everywhere conducive for it. It is called 'láʼntetè'. It is not like its seasonal cousin which we often eat here in Africa. If you want to try something, why not lay your hand on a good source of protein? However, the picture there looks like that of the commonly eaten one that is yet to fully develop.

So because tiger, lion, cheetah belong to cat family, they should all be called cats.

It's a noctunal insect that looks like a cricket but lives with humans in houses.

If you know its name, it might help not just me but someone else too.
