All orders placed up until 6pm PST Sunday will normally be shipped on Tuesdays unless there is an issue with your order. If you place an order after 6pm PST on Sunday, your mantis will be shipped the Tuesday of the following week. We will only ship mantids to destinations with daytime temperatures between 40-88 degrees. This means that if your destination is below 40 degrees on or around expected delivery day, we will not ship. If your destination is above 88 degrees on or around expected delivery day, we will not ship. Please be aware of your weather and temps for the week your mantis will ship. It is your responsibility to be aware of your local temps on or around expected delivery day. If you place an order and we deem your local temps are too high or too low, we will hold your mantis until the temps in your area fall between 40-88 degrees. Mantis Universe reserves the right to hold your mantis until temps fall within this range.
The order cut off time is 6pm PST Sunday if you want your mantis to ship on Tuesday.
