Yep thats them. Using a bunch right now and have been for years. Don't worry, they work fine.

Remember mantids don't need to much air anyway.

They can be airtight and the mantis won't sufficate. I think the biggest concern about venilation is fungus or other weird things growing.

No, they can't be airtight unless you want to open it all the time to allow air exchange. Enough air passes through these lids though. Never had any issues of any fungus or mold hurting any mantids.
