Mold or webbing?

[AvicBud]

T needs to be moved now. It could die waiting for a suitable enclosure. I don't understand the "this is a temporary setup" excuse I see on here all of the time. Especially, when it's so so easy and cheap to fix the problems.

All you need is a tall pretzel/cheese ball container or something like it (esp. at that size.). Any tall container, that you can get ventilation holes into. On all sides!

Dry with a water dish. Vertical cork bark. Fake foliage canopy. Done. Your spider is out of danger!

Wait couldnt I just add more ventilation holes to the current enclosure . Would have the same effect as your saying?

Looks to be mold. I would suspect from a lost bolus somewhere in the enclosure on the substrate

A lost bolus will not cause that much mold. I only remove them the rare times I see them. As long as there is good ventilation even damp enclosures will be mold free. Bolii are pretty much dry exo.

But you'd have to wait for it to dry out. And it will take a while because you WAY overdid it with moisture and WAY underdid it with the ventilation. And Avics are very sensitive.

Would it be suitable for me to take out the substrate (T would be moved out during this process-) add ventilation air it out re add everything and then add the T?

This would be suitable if you added all new dry substrate. Which you can. A bag costs a couple bucks. But to keep the Avic in another container while this sub air dries? Well....I wouldn't.
