so for the past month ive noticed there has been a couple of these guys hoping from tree to tree, ive counted 4 in one given day. around this time of year for some reason my bougainvillea gets aphids but that has not been the case this year and i think these bad boys have a lot to do with it. they seem to really enjoy my trees and are definitely sticking around.

Ow, me too! But how LB highlighted, have to stay with ladybugs and native mantids
Idolomantis is fantastic, but not easy species, neither to keep or breed. Where you can do bonsai outdoors, you cannot do these. In terrarium, it needs constant 28-32+ degrees and almost always bone dry environment (native p.ex: Somalia, Kenya, Ethiopia,...). They catch everything what’s flying and can grow over 10-12 cm body length. Outstanding beauty, but personally I never had a chance to get in my collection.
