ive just come across these little critters cos someone told me they feed them to their mantids. what i was wondering was cos they are gut loaded with sweet things are they ok to feed to mantids on a regular basis. especially when im already using bee pollen & honey dusting powder on the fruit flies everyday. i like my mantids to have good stuff but can all this have an adverse effect with it being too sweet for them. (and for all you jokers out there i know i dont have to worry about them getting a sweet tooth).LOL! Any input would be greatly apprecieted cheers!.
ive also just read on the forums that a lot of mantids turn their noses up at wax worms and wont even touch them anybody heard of this cheers.........
