Seen a praying mantis today. Took my binxie outside and the mantis was stalking him! I know they don't just kill spiders and insects, they kill and eat mice, snakes, frogs, even humming birds. So I scooped up my little 5lb man and took him inside. Waiting for that bug to go away |
My x-husband saved a mantis from a spider's web one time.....in appreciation for being rescued from a stalking spider, the mantis looked loving at my x-husband, and immediately BIT him on the hand that had just lovingly rescued it from the jaws of a spider!!!! So much for appreciation in the world of insects!! While it cost that mantis his life, he couldnt have bitten a better scoundrel!!! |
I know this thread is old but I love mantises! I know what bugs to kill and which ones to leave. I even leave the black widows that are out of the way of the dogs. This year I've had much less crickets and roaches in our yard. We've also had a lot of big fat lizards helping to patrol my yard. |
