Is superglue ok in mantis enclosures?

[plant]

Hi guys I just wanted to know if it would be ok to use a small amount of superglue in my mantid's containers or will the chemicals kill them?

thanks,

Adrian

It's OK; lots of folks use it to secure ooths to pot lids. I would suggest that you let it harden, though (only a minute!), before you reintroduce mantids into the enclosure. Curing takes about 24 hours, but the volatile gases are gone very quickly. Do a sniff test.

Just use a hot glue gun. The glue used for them is nontoxic and can be easily removed later on if need be.
