Small insects, known as praying Mantises. Can range between a few cm to as large as 12". Mostly harmless, but can bite through skin. Is an insectivore, will eat bugs on the ground or will catch in mid air while flying.
If you want a mantid they are available at specialist pet shops, and if you want to get rid of one simly encourage it to walk onto your and let it walk or fly outside. Do not kill them.
