[QUOTE="Tenodera, post: 349858, member: 8310"] Pesticide risk from wild-caught prey is extremely small in most places. If wild moths, flies, grasshoppers, leafhoppers, etc are behaving normally, and the area is not littered with dead/dying insects as if it's been recently sprayed, then you won't see any consequences from wild-caught food. I've been feeding a significant proportion of wc prey for 20 years of keeping, across three states. What, and how often, have these mantises been eating? This could be a malnutrition issue. [/QUOTE]
