Maybe you could just fix the crashes as and when they appear? Does it matter that the device is jailbroken? If there's a crash, you should be able to fix it and move on.

The question on detecting such devices has been asked multiple times. And the answer is: no sure way. So best is to try find out the root cause of crash. Critical as the crash also occurs with clean devices.

Maybe the reason of high proportion is that your app is more attractive to those types of users.

Good luck.
