I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cricket devotee's location?' is the definition.
'insect' can be an answer for 'cricket' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'devotee's location?' bit.

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for insect that I've seen before include "Creepy-crawly" , "Eg, bee, mosquito" , "Worker, possibly" , "Nicest (anag) - six-footer" , "Fly, say?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
