Hatchling Carolina Mantis wondering what I’m doing in its face. Here’s hoping these little guys can bring the fight to the enemy bugs in our garden!

    There are a handful of gardening sites that sell the egg cases, called ooths. I got mine from Hirt’s Gardens - needed to get a native mantis type so as not to introduce a non-native species to my area.

    Got them specifically for natural pest control. Hopefully they come back next year like the sunflowers did - guess we’ll see!
