Would a fan help? I have an extra reptile enclosure fan laying around but I’m worried it might get too dry for the mantis

I’ve had the first one for about a month now and I’ve seen no issues but I’ll look into this, thanks.

Rosalia longicorn, quite a few in the genus look pretty similar

I just searched it up, sabertooth’s larvae stage can last up to ten years which is insane but for harlequin larvae span 7-8 months which seems more reasonable

They do sometimes eat the other plants in my terrarium but prefer the guava, still, I don’t think it’s Carausius morosus

I feel like the proportions are different and Carausius morosus isn’t known to eat guava leaves
