you can depending on how big the species is. pinhead crickets can often harm the mantids so fruit flies are always best :)

Chances of crickets harming the mantis are slim. Go ahead and use them if you want. I do agree ff's are better for nymphs though. Fish food flakes is a great food for pinheads massaman.
