Facts: Mantises use camouflage to ambush their victims and to hide from other predators. Many mantises are green or brown so they can blend in with leaves, sticks, or other plant matter. Mantises can change their coloration after they molt, so some mantises in Australia and Africa will turn black after a forest fire so they can continue to match their surroundings. Other mantises living in tropical climates can have lighter colors. The tropical flower mantis is sometimes pink so it will resemble a flower. This deception can be so effective that insects or a hummingbird will sometimes land on the mantis thinking that it is a flower. That is likely the last mistake the insect or bird will ever make.
Mantises are usually considered beneficial insects in gardens because they prey on insects like Japanese beetles that feed on plants like roses.
Answer: If you have mantises in your garden, consider yourself lucky. They might look like prehistoric nightmares, but they are too small to be of any danger to a human being and they are not poisonous. The only consideration you might want to make is to keep bird feeders away from plant materials where the mantises might be hiding. This will protect unsuspecting hummingbirds and keep the mantises focused on killing bugs that are harmful to your garden plants.
