Any advice on how to remove insect remains?

[RedCapTrio]

Hi all,

I've always read to remove the remains of insects after the T has feed. However, I cannot do it since the T drag its food inside the hide where he burrowed underneath which is otherwise hard to reach.

So any experience similar or advice is welcome. Thanks much!

HTK!

I asked the same question here a while ago. everyones said to just leave it be. get what u can get and let the spider be a spider. if it doesnt want it in its hide, itll kick it out. just keep and eye out for mold.

Yup, if you can't reach it with tweezers, just leave it.

That's good to know. I was actually worried about molds and stuff as I just did a substrate replacement due to molds. Don't want to do it again so soon. I was actually shaking as I lifted the 2incher with a wide spoon being my first T and all from enclosure to enclosure.

i would suggest using a solo cup or deli cup instead of a spoon.

You don't need to do it unless it's getting moldy or something.
