Praying Mantids

(over 20 species are native to the United States)

Praying mantids are voracious garden predators that wait in ambush for prey to come along. They are not picky and will eat any insect!  The CA native mantid (Stigmomantis californica) is often seen though most species seen in our gardens in CA are foreign (Chinese and European species) introduced early this century for agricultural pest control purposes.
