Praying Mantis Eggs from Tip Top

Praying mantises are territorial insects that stalk their prey. They may sit for hours waiting for prey to crawl by and strike at lightning speed without warning, killing their prey with a bite to the neck.

  • Contains two egg cases housing around 150-200 baby mantises each
  • Targets grasshoppers, crickets, and any other insect the mantis can overcome
  • Consider where you are placing the egg casing as pesticides, wetting agents and even spreader-stickers may adversely affect the mantis’ survival. Broad spectrum and systemic insecticides are toxic to praying mantises.
  • Hang somewhere out of the way and camouflaged. The elusive babies will hatch and crawl out of the casing in 6 weeks or less.



"Great selection and helpful staff. A bit crowded but it was Friday afternoon."

"Wow! What a wonderful first time to Bath!! The staff is beautiful!! Professional, knowledgeable and so willing to help and inform. The selection of indoor plants (this is what I came in for) is spectacular and the care they give their plants is exceptional. Hundreds of plants and in my time at Bath saw not one brown leaf. No dying plants and no unhealthy plants which tells me that they are meticulous in their care. I would like to give a shout out to “The Sheriff.” I believe her real name is Martha! Unbelievable human being. They went over and above to help me find the perfect oversized houseplant. They made it a beautiful experience and not just a buying experience. Sheriff!! You made me a happy man, customer and future customer of Bath!! ✌🏼❤️"
