[QUOTE="plainone, post: 309097, member: 9606"] Well, it depends on where my mantis is. If they're on top of the lid of the critter cage, usually when I flip it over, their usually eager to crawl right over to my hand. Sometimes they're not so eager, so I put a stick in front of them and they usually walk right on it. I have a free range mantis and if she is on the ceiling above the window where she usually hangs, I use my cell phone and she crawls right onto it and I bring her down. Some have mentioned that the tricky part is getting them back into their homes and I agree. They always seem to want to stay on you lol Sometimes I get them situated on the lid and flip it really quickly and secure it, making sure their legs aren't underneath on the sides and they go to the middle or sometimes I put them on a stick on the bottom of the cage, where they act all miffed for a few minutes and then climb back onto the top.
