I bought some egg cases, three weeks ago. There not hatching yet. Is it to soon ? Anything special I need to do ? Any tips from someone with experience ???
Aphids and ladybugs are out.
Thank y'all

It can take up to 2 months for them to hatch. Just keep them warm.

Unless you have a lot of insect pests to feed the mantids when they hatch, they will cannibalize themselves before you know it. There are other beneficial predators that work more effectively than mantids although none as visible and interesting to watch.

Maybe you can help me ? Will ?

The best source of solid information on using beneficials is Susan Wainwright, a professional who works with many professional growers. Here is a link to her site:
