how catch a Mantis in an Established LR wall


OK, I thought I'd rid my tank of these creatures. As I was mounting a new frag, I saw the distinguished look of two eyeballs on sticks peering at me. I'm glad he didn't strike. I coaxed it out just a bit with some shrimp, but he quickly retreated. Any trick out there to capture this dude?

Try glass jar trap.

Need plastic coke bottle cut top off and invert it to make a trap.
