[QUOTE="Peekaboo, post: 7139, member: 146"] If the food has a parasitic infection, and a mantid eats the infected food, the mantid will suffer from the infection as well, due to the fact that it ingested the parasite. The parasite will be passed onto the mantid through digestion. It's very prudent to make sure that what you feed your mantids is healthy. Think of feeding in terms of "you are what you eat". :) Live, healthy, nutritious food, will make for live, healthy, mantids. [/QUOTE]
