How to Raise Praying Mantis insects

Описание: This video tells you what you need to raise praying mantis insects. From when you first collect your egg case (oothecae) to separating them and keeping them in your containers.
The video walks you through what supplies you need, and what you should do to prepare for raising praying mantis insects. It provides suggestions for: proper identification of a Chinese praying mantis egg case; where you should store it until early May; what type of container to place the egg case in; where to put that container; how often to check on it; and when to order flightless fruit flies. ******* IMPORTANT: be sure to suspend your egg case in the container before it hatches- my video showed it laying at bottom. If your stick is not long enough, simply attach it to a longer one with 2 twisty ties. When the nymphs emerge, they can hang freely above the bottom of container and can flex their legs and have them stiffen to the proper shape naturally. And, those 1-1/4" x 4" plastic vials are great for housing the little nymphs, not fruit flies, for about 15 days. (Another tip- they are going to emerge early in the morning, say between 6:00 and 8:00 am.)
