They usually eat right after they hatch. Some die quickly, so if you are housing them, give them a damp sponge 4 water, and small bugs, such as aphids, gnats, or fruit flies. Let all but 3 or 4 go if you have multiple.

How do you catch a praying mantis?

You must move very slowly towards the praying mantis you are planning on catching, the safest way of catching one is to get a glass or plastic jar and a lid in your pocket, now come toward it very slowly and then quickly cover it with the jar and put on the lid. Remember to punch air holes into the lid and voila you have your praying mantis. But a glass or plastic jars do not make good homes for your new found praying mantis, buy a aquarium and put in grass and dirt and make it look like outside. Now carefully put your new pet inside.
