[QUOTE="PrayingMantisPets, post: 313793, member: 8022"] ive had the same problem with an adult giant African mantis She grabbed onto my finger multiple times went to town. Make sure you mantis is fed and wave your hand in front of it. You can tell if its in attack mode (eyes lock on and arms in praying position) or wandering mode (when its arms are wiggling trying to reach for something to grab onto). If any of my mantises grab onto me i have a stick to block them from biting me. Once they taste the stick they usually let go. Females eat a ton at older ages so feed her till she stops then give it a few days and feed her again. [/QUOTE]
