[QUOTE="julian camilo, post: 14882"] a few summers back i fed my mantids (p. wahlbergii at the time) pretty much solely on wild caught bees and wasps and flies. most of the time the bees and wasps posed no problem to the mantids, but sometimes the mantids would seem to get stung, as theyd suddenly throw the wasp/bee away and let it go. they would then be very lethargic and not as alert as before. i assumed they had been stung. this was only temporary though (they were soon more alert and back to normal), and like i say, it was only a few occasions, for the most part the mantids handled the bees and wasps very well, and there seemed to be no lasting serious damage from what i saw. x [/QUOTE]
