Praying mantises are carnivorous insects that mainly feed on other insects, such as locusts, grasshoppers, crickets, etc. Praying mantises also eat small reptiles and invertebrates, such as spiders, centipedes, leeches, etc. As for whether mantises eat vegetables, there is currently no conclusive scientific data on which vegetables they eat. But judging from the feeding habits of mantises, they are more suitable for eating meat food rather than plant food.
