I went outside to my car and I saw a giant brown thing on the windshield and it gave me a heart attack because I thought it was a huge spider but upon closer inspection it was a praying mantis so I ran back into my house and grabbed a jar, ran back to my car and caught it. I wanna keep it now but I don't know what to do first. Should I put leaves and twigs in there? Do mantis's need/drink water? Its about 2.5 inches long and a little less than q quarter inch wide so what type of bugs should I throw in there with him ants or crickets? Do they emit a smell because I think it's starting to smell...not bad but weird..

Any help is appreciated, thank you. For those of you who are thinking I should search google I have. I know they eat each other and the largest ones can grow up to 6.5 inches long but it doesn't answer these questions.....except for the food problem but I don't know what type of bugs to put in there.

Thanks again
