    Mantis fell during molting?

    I have had this happen a time or two. If she can make it to the next molt she might be ok. If you can feed her with tweezers and get her to drink from an eye dropper of Q-tip she might be able to make it ok, if not... the odds are not in her favor.

    Is this an okay terrarium for a ghost mantis or two?

    As the others have said the humidity would be a little high in there. Ghosts don't more around a ton so you might be able to keep one in there but I wouldn't keep more than that.

    How do I keep these gnats away?

    In the past I have had quite a bit if success using only cocoa fiber, and yes don't keep it wet. I would mist mine occasionally and kept a water bottle cap full of water in each enclosure.

    Tenodera sinensis Range

    I've seen them in IL and in NC but I noticed something odd this year...although the winter was mild and insects were abundant I hardly saw any mantids.
