Using a net or beating sheet I tend to see more walkingsticks, and assassin bugs, when I am in tall weed clearings in wooded areas (such as those cut out for power lines). The more time I am out collecting mantids, and such, the more I come across walkingsticks too. It seems to be a bit of luck being in the right area to find them, and lots of time collecting to come across them.The flashlight at night idea by Salmonsaladsandwich above sounds interesting too; however, it still means you have to get out there and be in the right area, but might make seeing them easier rather than finding them in your net/sheet.</blockquote>
