Praying Mantises can be used in Vegetable Gardens, Greenhouses, Indoor Grows, On Trees, Shrubs, Ivy, anywhere pest exist or kept as pets. These beautiful insects are known to have a voracious appetite. They are strictly carnivorous and feed on almost all insects. Their favorite meals include: Crickets, Grasshoppers, Moths, Locust, Caterpillars, Flies, Cockroaches and other pests. Indoor Hatching: Simply place your hatching habitat in a warm are out of direct sunlight and check every few days for hatching. The egg cases will need approximately 70*F for 2-6 weeks depending on when the female laid the egg. Release the mantises as soon as the hatching occurs. Outdoor Hatching: Attach the egg cases to a twig or place in the crotch of the plant about 1 to 2 feet off the ground. When hatching, the young crawl from between tiny flaps and hang from silky threads about 2 inches below the egg case. Once the egg has hatched it does not change in appearance! The well camouflaged babies will disperse within an hour. Review: My kids and I loved it! - This year was my third time doing mantids with my kids. The first was about ten years ago and everything went great. I had hundreds on tiny little predators all over my yard for months. The second time was last year and the chrysalis didn’t hatch anything. This year they again hatched dozens if not hundreds. I released them into my garden with my kids and they had a blast. It almost seemed as though the little mantids didn’t want to leave us. My garden is enclosed with chicken wire so they’re fairly safe if the stay inside. They can easily leave if they want to but I’m hoping at least a few stick around. There’s plenty of mosquitoes and flies for them to munch on if they do. Next we want to try ladybugs. It’s been a fun little adventure for my kids. I spoke with customer service a couple times last year and they were VERY helpful and exceeded every expectation I had. I’ll definitely be using their services again. Either for ladybugs, worms or any other beneficial garden guests. Review: Not good quality - The eggs never hatched and when I reached out to the company, they wouldn’t refund or reissue since they said it was too late but I had to wait the full six weeks to give enough time to make sure they would hatch. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00L9K46KU | | Brand Name | Bug Sales | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 910 Reviews | | Educational Objective | Life Cycle of Insects, Hatching and Caring for Praying Mantises | | Is Assembly Required | Yes | | Item Dimensions | 4 x 4 x 4 inches | | Manufacturer | Nature's Good Guys | | Material Type | Plastic | | Set Name | Bug Sales Praying Mantis Egg Cases Kit | | Size | small egg casings | | Theme | Animal | | UPC | 657994100317 | | Unit Count | 2.0 Count | ## Images ![Praying Mantis Egg Cases - 2 Cases, Live Praying Mantises, Hatching Habitat Cup, Educational Kit for Adults & Children - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81dAMGI8FLL.jpg) ![Praying Mantis Egg Cases - 2 Cases, Live Praying Mantises, Hatching Habitat Cup, Educational Kit for Adults & Children - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YEIPJqlYL.jpg) ![Praying Mantis Egg Cases - 2 Cases, Live Praying Mantises, Hatching Habitat Cup, Educational Kit for Adults & Children - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71mmzNyB8GL.jpg) ![Praying Mantis Egg Cases - 2 Cases, Live Praying Mantises, Hatching Habitat Cup, Educational Kit for Adults & Children - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61cJ3FvwL5L.jpg) ![Praying Mantis Egg Cases - 2 Cases, Live Praying Mantises, Hatching Habitat Cup, Educational Kit for Adults & Children - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71K-scNCIhL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What species are these?** A: Chinese Mantid which are INVASIVE and decimating our native species, the Carolina mantis. Stay away. **Q: what species of mantid are these?** A: Tenodera sinensis is an invasive species that destroys pollinators in NJ. https://njaudubon.org/praying-mantis-indiscriminate-predator/ **Q: What kind of mantids are these?** A: chineese or carolina mantids **Q: What type of Mantis are they? Green, stick.** A: One poster said brown mantis were male and green were female, this is not true - they can both be either. Female mantids grow significantly larger than males but you will only find that out in the later part of their lives. Counting the segments in the abdomen is the only way to tell before then. The males’ antennae are also longer and thinner than females. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My kids and I loved it! *by (***) on June 17, 2023* This year was my third time doing mantids with my kids.
