Mantids only eat live insects (and occasionally small lizards, mammals and birds if they are able to catch them). They cannot eat plants or dead meat. In captivity they can be fed fruit flies, larger flies (e.g. bluebottle flies), moths, locusts, Dubia roaches, mealworms, crickets and various other live insects. It is recommended not to feed them anything larger than 2/3 the mantis's body length so they can eat it easily.
