[QUOTE="agent A, post: 346299, member: 2948"] ok imma ignore all of the spelling/grammar mistakes and uses of the wrong spelling of words and take a few deep breaths... ok so were all 12 mantises fed the same food source, and what was it? that would be my first guess is that something they ate was contaminated with a pathogen or a chemical extreme thermic shock (if it suddenly got too cold, like below say 42F, or above about 100F) could also be to blame horsehair worm doesn't kill the host per se, it leads it to water before escaping where are you living? there's a chance a poison of some sort was applied near a vent that led to your space those worms could be phorid fly larvae scavenging on dead ****: it takes a mighty pesticide load to murk them. I generally mix some pretty noxious stuff into some crested gecko diet and leave it out as bait for these fuckers the video, sadly, isn't too helpful [/QUOTE]
