My 1 inch H.incei's vial experienced a case of "beginner keeper paranoia". 
It got little mite things after getting too moist and having a dead cricket (I'd attempted to take it out and the T tried to escape). Plus, it should be molting soon, and the vial didn't look roomy enough, so I decided to transfer. I used a 60 ml syringe barrel that fit right over the vial's top and it worked great. I did it in the bathtub. I flooded the burrow with water squirted into the small end of the syringe using my mouth, and the T went right in. (make sure the T isn't small enough to squeeze through the small end) Then I just blew it into the new enclosure. Some might think, H incei fast? compared to Pokies anyway, but for me being as a beginner, it was a big step from the typical slow terrestrials.
