Hello I'm from Spain, 2 days ago my last Sphodromantis Viridis died because of infected flies.
My Sphodromantis Viridis was just L1 (3 weeks), In his/her first day I bought some Drosophila but the order did not arrived (It's supposed that they should have arrived 3 weeks ago).
Then I had to give him some flies I found in a "sludge" behind my house.
The flies was infected and the mantis died (The mantis puked severally and his head and torax became in black colour).
I've been a little sad and I decided to start knowing how to care Drosophila (When they arrive lol) and after buy some species.
So.. I've got two questions:
1- What cream/porridge do you use?
2-How to take a fly ? (That question looks stupid but its important)
