Thanks for the warm welcome, mantis are cute, i usually found one white baby mantis playing around at my cp garden, and it will climb on my hands whenever i see it, i hope to keep it, but i do not know the right way, what should i do so that i can promote mantis population in my garden? thank you

Probably since you have them there is to let them be for now and watch for more. They are probably laying ooths or else you would not see them. Also you can get some species that are native to your area and let them loose in the garden too. If you are just wanting to keep the little guy that climbs on your hand, u just have to make sure u feed it every day.

I did not feed it, but it only climb my hands when i am getting rid of some bug(meal bug), i think it was after it, today i did not see it, hope it is safe..Will it be possible for me to prepare an immobile food supply so that they will visit my garden more frequently? if so, what is your suggestion?
