Can praying mantis's stab you?

No, praying mantis may "spit" a brown substance around their mouths as a defensive regurgitation like some other insects do, but this secretion is not dangerous to humans. It is a myth that they can be harmful to or even kill humans. Additional note: However, you may be thinking of a type of walking stick insect that can actually "spit" secretions away from itself in defense of predators.
