Best of luck to your coming trip Dave. Enjoy the trip as much as possible don't get burden up by finding mantis, and be safe. i hope to do the same on my trip next month. Be sure to share some pics and info of your trip when you're back here

Thanks Yen and all the same to you and your family as well. You'll also need to take some pictures. There is something so magical and beautiful about Asia. I've always wanted to go.

Okay, thanks. I'm guessing that low-level plants which have vines and thick enough branches will be okay. As in, I won't have to climb up trees to find them.

I don't think you have to climb, unless you are looking for a certain size species. Large species are close to the ground, while smaller species and flower mantids are usually higher, in the trees

And the the Richard Gere/Gary Shandling stories were funny... but this'll bring a new kinda notoriety to the hobby, maybe even open a few eyes, while opening other cavities... :lol: You could mail them to Emile or somebody else in canada, and they could mail them down here. I'd bet Emile would do if for an ooth or two of a rare variety.

sure would, anything for a ooth
