A Fantastic Addition To The Garden Or As A Science Project!
Praying mantids eat a wide variety of pest insects, mites, and insect eggs.
Mantis egg cases are commonly released by gardeners looking for general garden pest control without chemicals. They can be instrumental in beginning biological control as part of an integrated pest management program. Young mantids prey upon smaller soft-bodied insects, while adults graduate to larger pests. View an extended list of mantis prey below.
How Long Do Praying Mantis Egg Cases Take To Hatch?
Hatching requires at least 4 to 8 weeks of continuous warm weather (75-80ยฐF, >50% RH) and can take as long as 6 weeks to begin. Once hatching begins, the young
mantids
emerge looking for something to eat. It takes just a few hours for an egg sack to complete hatching once it begins. Mantids prefer temperatures above 60ยฐF for continued activity in the release area.
How Many Praying Mantids Are In One Egg Case?
Each praying mantis egg case, called ootheca, is collected in the wild and contains between 150โ200 individual eggs.
How Many Egg Cases Should I Get?
We recommend using 3 cases every 5,000 sq. ft. or 10-100 cases per acre. It is important to space out each egg case to limit cannibalism rates among newly hatched mantids.
WE GOT THE BUG'S
โข One of the best solutions for people who don't want to use dangerous chemicals in their garden to control insects.
โขThey eat about any bug except the valuable Lady Bugs
โขSimply refrigerate the egg cases until you are ready for your chemical-free insect control
โขThe average hatch time is 2 months. PLEASE BE PATIENT
โขMost hatch at once, but some hatching may take up to two or more months. Tempter should be 70ยบ or more.
FOR SPRING USE, STORE THROUGH THE WINTER IN A PAPER BAG OR BOX IN YOUR UNHEATED GARAGE, SHED OR BACK PORCH. HANG CASES OUTSIDE WITH A BREAD TIE TO A BRANCH IN THE LATE WINTER, EARLY SPRING. FREEZING TEMPERATURES AND FROST WILL NOT HARM THE EGG CASE (OOTHECA). PLACE IN A BUSHY PLANT FOR THEIR PROTECTION WHEN THEY HATCH.
Once the weather warms up each case should produce between 50 and 150 young mantises that will immediately begin feeding on pest insects'
It is possible that the egg won't hatch; there are no grantees in nature.
Please don't squeeze the cases, you'll crush my little head. !!!!
These are for the 2020 season
The Chinese Praying Mantis is a fantastic species for the beginner,
proving to be one of the easiest to keep in captivity. They can live up to 5+ months.
Not only is it large, but very tame, and will tolerate handling.
Diet is no problem. They love Fruit Flies.
The hydei fruit flies don't come with your mantis.
You will need to supply your mantis with flies for abut another 30 days.
Keep your mantis strong and healthy.
It's best to keep your mantis around 20-26 C (68-78.8 F) Warmer temperature speeds up the metabolism of the mantis and will shorten its life span and in contrast, cooler temperature slows its metabolism and lengthens the life span, but both extremes could kill it. Humidity should be around 60-65%. This can be achieved by spraying or watering the coconut fiber 3 times a week. The main purpose of humidity is to help the mantis molt. Too much humidity will cripple the mantis during molts, and too little will hinder it from emerging from the old skin.
Just make sure your mantis doesn't get too dry or too damp
Responsibly Harvested:
Our egg cases are collected by professionals who never over harvest leaving the smaller ones behind ensuring healthy future populations.
Highest Quality:
We pick only the freshest so you receive only top notch egg cases.
We sell fresh egg cases, so you never have to worry about receiving last yearโs egg cases which look identical but wonโt hatch.
Performance:
Mantises are wicked cool and considered to be a garden generalist. As ambush hunters praying mantises will not control a given pest species.
Is it possible that your egg case won't hatch? Yes, but not if the correct temperature, humidity and time requirements were met.
Many of the nymphs will be eaten by other predators, so expect only 1-3 mantises to reach adulthood.
Patience is a virtue; allow up to 2 months for hatching
!
General Information:
On average a praying mantis egg case contains 200 eggs.
The Chinese mantisesโ healthy appetite allows them to grow to an astonishing size of four to five inches in length.
It is possible to keep a praying mantis as a pet in a terrarium or suitable container to observe their impressive hunting skills.
