Came home today and found that my unicorn had succesfully molted... but i cant find the mantis. its in a yogurt bottle with a screen lid, held down with a rubber band. and disappeared. looked everywhere cant find it, any ideas or suggestions on how to catch an L3 mantis?

Well how could it get it out? If it did I would look up high or near a window.

Start asking family members. If the top was still on securely and you are 199% SURE it is not in there, then someone let it out.

I think I can safely say that the mantis could not have put the lid back on after it escaped, even if it had the wisdon to do so.
