You are kidding, right? When my daughter was very little I showed her a mantis and told her they were our friends. She's grown now and will still "pet" them or pick them off something where they are in danger and relocate them.Not gonna lie kinda intimidating, I didn't get too close lol!
I mean out of all the plants in my yard it did pick the best one to hang out in, it's where I'd want to hang out all day..I found 2 of these guys in my plants this year also....wonder if there is something to this or just the fact it gives them nice cover to hide in.
"They will die EVERYTIME!" LOLYea I can deal with the smaller ones but when they start getting big and hairy that's where I draw the line and they have to die lol
In my opinion it's virtually impossible to have an outdoor garden and not have bugs. You can spray all you want but I would rather have them hanging around as a part of my defense than to think that I got everything and be wrong.i think its great you have a protector, but i may be more worried if it hangs around. if it stays then there is plenty for it to eat, so what is on your plants that it is eating?
i mean its all good but i would rather not have the pests to begin with that a mantas needs to take up a home in my plants.
Dude...have you seen that hooka smoking caterpillar around anywhere, fucker stole my stash"I'm creepin in the bushes!"
