Very cool! I knew about Yen's allergy but didn't realize it was that bad. Yikes!
I seem to be allergic to darkling beetle/mealworms, but I keep on raising them. I only have an issue when the colony gets older and has a lot of frass in it. Or if I pull the head off from a mealworm and touch my eye without washing my hands first.

Allergic to mantises? That's certainly a weird allergy. Is it only to roaches and mantids, or other insect too?

A teacher I used to work with told me about her first year in a classroom; the children were really excited about finding a snail in the yard. They showed it to her Co-teacher, who picked it up and immediately dropped it on the ground, it turns out she went into anaphylactic shock the moment it touched her skin! Scary stuff.

Neat article! I just got an allergy test done and I'm not allergic to anything. Thanks goodness.
Orin was interviewed and sent them to me and I sent them to Yen and Albert, Albert and I declined so Yen is the MAN!
PS... this will be picked up by newpapers across the country in months to come.

I did a search and found it elsewhere. There are some different versions including at least one where the last half got chopped.

It was a fun telephone interview. Talked for almost an hour and it was unfortunate I have to go. Linda asked some good questions too but it was probably my fault not to explain clearly on mantis growth. Mantis never go through full metamorphisis.
