Pros & Cons
Pros
When they hatch i just unzip and they get to chowing down on those aphids. I know about praying mantises but for those of you who don't, the company sends instructions.
Cons
Mantis eggs were duds. I love praying mantises and needed them in my vegetable/herb garden, so this was truly disappointing.
Highlights
Quality
This is the best natural bug control
This is a great activity and spanned a few weeks
Kept them inside and two days later started hatching
Kept them close to a heat source but not too close and they started popping open one at a time over a few day period
Shipping
This arrived in a timely manner and all 5 egg cases hatched in the recommended time period
Ladybugs all arrived alive and happy to be set free
At week 6 still no baby mantises and i got discouraged and decided nothing was going to happen
The shipping box had stickers to let the delivery company know there are live bugs
Packaging/appearance
I gotta say just seeing her excitement upon opening the box and seeing a bunch of lady bugs she got to release was all i needed... Read More
Arrived in great shape and hatched like magic
I took the container outside set it in a bush and opened it up
Packaging is 55 because i didnt notice any dead bugs
Competitiveness
Either way i wouldnt buy them they are natural pests in oklahoma that happen to be better than lady bugs or mantis
