a cricket prob!

I was cleaning my gecko cage and I noticed that I have a very small problem.
I have many, many baby crickets in my cage. I was able to get one on my finger and get a close look at it. It looks just like a cricket and fits on to a ball point pin head. is this normal or is this a problem. I don't leave crickets in there a long time, she eats and then I flush the ones that are left. If anything what can I do to prevent this or don't worry about it! which one?

The best thing do to would to feed in a seperate tub or feeding container. If that isnt possible as I know some are contrary, lol....take out all the caging furniture when feeding, that way none can hide.

I cleaned the cage and I haven't seen anymore, I just hope that that did it, it is a pain to clean, but I do it. It doesn't bother my gecko like it use to when I would clean her cage! but thanks for your all's help.
