Greetings Garden Buddies!
We just wanted to take a quick moment to thank all of our loyal clients over the last three years that have kept our business thriving. We have expanded four times since we opened our doors and now have a location in Colfax, CA. Hundreds of students have attended our complete series of free weekly grow classes over the last year and a half; learning everything about growing from starting seeds, cutting clones to harvest day!
We look forward to many more years of bountiful harvests with our friends and family in South Bay San Diego. Gorilla Gardener always strives to be your number one source for knowledge and Hydroponics equipment in San Diego County!
Back in stock for the 2012 outdoor growing season! Our breeder has hatched thousands of Preying Mantis to protect your garden this summer. Just drop by or give us a call and we will have the breeder deliver your order of living Mantises to our store to pickup!
San Diego County hydroponics & soil growers now have another extremely effective organic weapon to fight bug infestations in you garden! Praying Mantises will kill all your insect pests! Don’t make the mistake of ordering un-hatched eggs on the internet. The rate of Mantises that actually hatch is extremely low. We have them fully hatched and alive, ready to do battle with your spider mites.
The Praying Mantis is a Spider Mite’s worst nightmare, even a small size praying mantis will eat about six spider mites a day. The larger sizes we have can eat up to ten or more spider mites each day. If your garden is infested with fungus gnats, thrips, caterpillars, moths, spider mites, white flies, aphids, spiders or almost any other pest, a team of predator Praying Mantises is your answer.
What can I use to kill spider mites when I am in flower? The ONLY answer I give is “Praying Mantis”
What can I spray to stop spider mites? fungus gnats? NOTHING. Don’t spray chemicals (organic or synthetic) on your flowers! You can leave horrible flavors and aromas, stunt growth, hear popping and cracking toxic vapors, and give sources for mold when you spray a flowering plant. DON’T SPRAY CHEMICALS! DON’T USE PYRETHRIN BOMB FOGGERS! Use nature’s finest bug assassin, the Praying Mantis.
The standard soldier to obliterate the bugs in your garden is the “Small Chinese Praying Mantis.” We sell them for $1 each. They are small but will eat and eat and eat until every last bug is gone from your garden. You can them even collect them and feed them yourself, keep them until needed again. They will grow bigger and bigger the more they eat over time. Most Praying Mantis species will live about 18 months, some up to two years. If you have already sprayed bug sprays, wait a least a week until you introduce your Mantis enforcers!
We also sell “Large Chinese Praying Mantis” they consume about twice the amount of bugs each day as their smaller brothers. All orders come packed in cases with moisture and food, usually delivered next day when in stock. For the standard small Chinese Praying Mantis we need a minimum order of 30 for the manufacturer to deliver next day. If you need less than 30 we would have to wait a couple days for another additional order to get over the minimum.
We also sell some exotic pet Praying Mantises, Ghost Mantis, Thai Flower Mantis, Stick Mantis and Carolina Praying Mantis are the types we specialize in selling. We even have custom built praying mantis cages available if you need one!
Most species are delivered next day direct from the breeder “Mantis To Go” and are delivered hungry ready to annihilate those spider mites from hell! This is by far the best way to organically control pests in the garden. Whether you grow indoors, in a greenhouse, or in the fields, an army of Mantises is all the protection your harvest needs.
