Usually, The European mantis is common, but it could be a different one.

The Chinese praying mantis is common in east TN. This is the large green/tan mantis. The Carolina praying mantis is also found in east Tn. It is much smaller and more aggressive, usually with a more brown cast to it, with lesser claws than the Chinese.

How do praying mantis find food?

It depends on the religious denomination of the "Praying Mantis". Different religions not only have designated places to seek food, but also, the type of food that the Praying Mantis may eat.I believe Hermosa Beach, in California has a Homeless Mission for the Praying Mantis; however, the food is for consumption "in house", NOT for "take-out"! Not sure if it's still there, as this was back in 1999, when I lived in the area.

Does a praying mantis eat bees?

You probably won't believe this but here we go! Eailer today I found a mantis walking across my drive way. I picked him/her ( don't know the sex type) and brought it inside to show to friends. My buddy looked around to give the creature a meal. Instead he comes back with honey from the cabinet. Put a drop of honey on a joker from the deck of cards and the mantis started eatting it! Don't know if its good or bad for them.
