[QUOTE="Rick, post: 7612, member: 13"] First of all welcome to the site! I am from central Illinois myself. Anyways I suggest getting a small aquarium for the mantis. A screen lid will work. I use about a half inch of moist sphagnum moss in the bottom of my enclosures to hold some moisture in. You can buy it at Home Depot or Lowes. It comes dried. Lightly mist the mantid once a day. I recommend catching some grasshoppers or buy some feeder crickets for the mantis. Ants are not really a good food source IMO. We don't know what kind you have but I am going to guess it's a carolina mantis or even a chinese mantis. Read some of the threads on this site for more info. [/QUOTE]
