Lovely video. I like stick insects. As a kid I had Indian Stick insects which i hatched from eggs. They did very well, and since they wandered around my bedroom and all over the house, if they got the chance, a few may have escaped. In summer I put them on our privit hedge in the garden to feed. This was in Evesham Worcestershire, so a similarly mild climate to Cornwall. Now I live in Thailand I can see them in the wild.

do they have any negative effects on our wildlife?

Theyve lived and bred in West Cork lreland for over a Century l think......came in plants .... theyve spread from the 'original' import area into the wild around the area..... The Unarmed Type.

My friend found what appeared to be a 3.5cm one in my garden in Deganwy, North Wales and even said he found a stick insect. I dismissed it as something else. Not so sure, now!
