Crickets, Camel Crickets and Mole CricketsCan’t find it. Noisy!

I caught this bug in my kitchen, in the dark. It is approximately 3/4 inch long. If it is the culprit, it sounds like a cricket, but much louder and consistently sounding long. Kinda like a cicada but entirely more annoying.
What is it, and should I set it free in my neighbor’s bedroom window?

Tree Cricket
Hi David,
This is a Tree Cricket. We are puzzled, because if you find its chirping so annoying, we cannot imagine why you would want to release in in your neighbor’s bedroom window. We feel a much better habitat would be some foliage in the garden.
Thanks! Only annoying because it was keeping me up at night chirping in my kitchen. Loudest cricket I’ve heard. 
I let him go in the flower garden next to some nice boulders.
