When you have to change an arboreal species cage what method do you use to contain them safely, especially if you have a fairly hot spider like a pokie or something?
This has been my only concern about keeping one. With my Cobalt blue and other Burrowers I use the "half soda bottle and paint brush" method which can still be a trying experience. Does that work for the arboreal spiders as well?
It seems you would have to chase them around the cage a bit more or capture them on the walls or ceiling which to me would be more stressful for the spider.
What method do you use?
Thanks.
