Hello!
I am in the process of growing several plants and various insects are causing much disturbance. I thought of a potential solution to my problem, a Mantis!!
I am trying to avoid going to buy one, so that only leaves me one option....
I live in mid-Michigan, and am surrounded by forest.
So i ask you all for your help...
AM I GOING TO BE ABLE TO GO IN MY WOODS BEHIND MY HOUSE (ABOUT 20 ACRES) AND FIND ONE?!?!
I know they blend in very well so they are hard to see, but I have never came accross one in my life. I am told they are fairly abundant, but I want to know whether it will be worth my time to try and find one outside or not??
If so, anywhere or any specific type of vegetation to look at to get one? and kind of ''mantis tracks'' or specific things i should be looking for to find one? Trees, bushes, plants, flopwers, etc..?
any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!!!
