After 6 very long weeks, our Carolina Mantis cases have hatched. We tried these this year as a natural bug killer they eat all the harmful bugs that go after my garden year after year. It was a little long for the girls as every day for the last 3 weeks I have gotten have those things hatched yet.
Today was the day we came downstairs for breakfast and I saw hundreds of them covering the top of the hatching box. We let them out and the girls carried them to different parts of the garden. I think we might do a different bug every year for our land. Now that our bug hatcher is free this afternoon we will go looking for Monarch again !!! We hatched one last year and it was a great learning tool.
