I would suggest putting the crickets in something with a lid
The suggestion of using cickets is to get the snakes attention with something moving "a possible meal".
I would never suggest feeding crickets to the snake but since pinkies really dont move much they are not a big draw for something you are trying to coax out of hiding. Snakes are curious creatures when it comes to food and will eat just about anything alive if they get hungry enough.
