I have little brown crickets in my worm bin

If they are not eating my baby worms I don't so much mind if they stay. So my question is are they eating my worms? Thank you for your time. Vicky
Answer from BigTex Worms Are you sure they are crickets? Springtails are hopping little buggers that are common in a bin. Either way, I am not aware of any insect that is dangerous.
BUT crickets do have an exoskeleton,so sprinkling some diatomaceous earth in your bin will rid them and not hurt your worms at all.
