You can keep them cool in the fridge until you are ready to add them to your garden. **Q: Why have My mantises have not hatched** A: You must keep them warm day and night, minimum 72 degrees for at least 2 weeks **Q: When do I release these worker bugs? Before or after I plant** A: You want to release them as soon as they hatch, otherwise they'll eat each other. Also, it's hard to tell which cases have hatched if you get more than one. I kept both of mine in the container after I released the first batch, and then the second hatched. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/21679587-praying-mantis-egg-case-with-hatching-habitat-cup-2-praying](https://www.desertcart.at/products/21679587-praying-mantis-egg-case-with-hatching-habitat-cup-2-praying) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
