so i bought a bunch of ladybugs to protect my vegetable plants..theyve all flown away. now i have an ootheca egg case..but it says it can take 6 to 8 weeks to hatch? i have them in a very small paper bag taped to the wall outside of apt where it gets direct sunlight... is this the right way?

I'm currently living in Kansas and would like 10 mantis or so to protect my small veg garden :)

I'm a gardening and mantis newbie..I have about 8 new plants going now (tomatoes, peppers, berries, herbs), and would like to get some mantises to stand guard against pests. any suggestions on which type of mantis to get, how many to get, and how to make sure they stay put and have enough food?
