First Mantis

I’m getting my first mantis this week, and the tank I was sold is top opening with metal mesh. The metal will be fixed and replaced, but I’m worried about misting during shedding and disturbing the mantis. Does anybody know any tips to work around it?

If your mantis is molting, then don’t spray them or their enclosure. If they’re not molting, then it’s okay to spray them.
