** Yes, before anyone spots it and the youtube police come out, I've used a diagram of a Grasshopper when explaining mantis respiration. It's the clearest and most basic example available to describe what I am explaining :D. Like I said, this is a BASIC care guide. - I tried to add this explanation as a subtitle but not sure if it worked!***

Grab a coffee, pen and paper and get ready for a good old rant followed by the basic care of Orchids Mantids!!!
TikTok and mantids have become entwined over the last few months, unfortunately, in the majority of cases this has caused major care issues. Nowadays it seems to be the norm to attempt to be TikTok famous, especially amongst younger people and now, mantids have been brought into this causing a spike in sales but also bad care. This video is not an attempt to shame anyone but to try and provide some sort of information on their care. I am by no means an expert and am sharing my personal experiences and research with dealing with these animals for a number of years and hope that this care guide may benefit at least one person who may have impulse bought one of these beautiful creatures. I have a huge passion and love for all animals, but my heart lies with the weird and wonderful. These may be looked at by some as just ‘bugs’ that do not equate to the lives of more domesticated animals such as cats and dogs however, these fantastic creatures really do deserve the best life possible when kept in captivity. I have received a shocking number of messages via my Instagram account from people who have impulse bought these creatures directly as a result of seeing them on TikTok. This concerned me massively and due to other commitments in my life I am unable to answer all questions from these people. Hopefully, now I can direct them to this video which contains basic care. Thank you so much for your support and I hope you enjoy the video.
