Ooh, I have a pet praying mantis! They're harmless. But if you really want it out of the house, try using a large glass jar to trap it, and sliding some paper underneath it to safely lift up the little guy and take it outside
Mantises are nice but Melody said it best.
Get a jar or clear plastic container, slide paper under it, then set it outside and eventually it will go away.
Mantises are nice and kinda cuddly. Cute murder bugs. Better than assassin bugs at least.

Ok, I took your advice, or more specifically the internet's advice and tried to pick it up and put it in a box, but I was to scared so I called the gardener....
What? don't judge me, I'm just terrified on bugs..

I'm not going to eat a praying mantis...

As long as it was helpful. But they are harmless, most bugs are. It's just a matter of knowing which are okay to touch
5378147
I know but I'm just so creeped out by them

Understandable. Heh, the last time my preying mantis molted, my mom sent a picture to our relatives and my uncle sent back a "nope!" gif

don't knock it till ya try it!
So I guess it's gone now, right?

It sounds like you speak from experience. Have you eaten one?
5378511
you crazy? lol
5378158
I would react the same. What's it's name though?
5378204
You've eaten one before?!?

I named the preying mantis Dragonwing, but my mom calls her "bug"
5380286
lol.
So she can fly I guess, or was it males that fly?
5380288
The males can fly, never seen Dragonwing fly so I assume she's a female. And she's also way bigger than males are
5380292
I just got the creeps, I remembered something I learned in science, the female mantis literally eat the males!
Why is nature so messed up!?

It's just the natural order

Eh, guess so..
