This past year, we supplied multiple study groups of Chinese Tenodera sinensis , Carolina Stagmomantis carolina, and European Mantis religioso, mantids to the United States Air Force doing a study on pest control. The lantern flies, stink bugs, mud wasps are grounding aircraft . They have pest problems on their air field and the stink bugs, cicada's and lantern flies are getting into the aircraft motors and vents clogging up vital instruments. They are trying to find the most aggressive mantis species to help solve the problem. So the Tenodera sinensis is the winner
