New spider enthusiast

It was more learning to rehouse larger T’s and not really bolting. I’ve done quite a few smaller T’s less than 2” with relatively no issue.

The irminia posed a challenge because I’ve never been threat posed by a 4” spider, and never one that was super fast. She happened to be in a spot where the lid separates from the container and I had to nudge her to a different spot and the paint brush set her off. Between that, lack of confidence and experience it was nerve racking.

I’ve been thinking about getting a tri-pod for the phone. It would be entertaining for sure, but also a good way to get feedback on my technique and what I could do to improve.

if you have issues as soon as you open the enclosure , i would suggest just leaving the spider alone until it calms down. This has improved my rehouse success rate to nearly 100%
