[QUOTE="Arachnoclown, post: 169391, member: 27444"] This thread is to touch on cleaning glass for your enclosures. Many have said how hard and tedious this is but my method is fast and efficient while I'm feeding my beasts anyway. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200411_112750.jpg"]44765[/ATTACH] Step #1 I feed my spider...a feeding spider tends not to care what you are doing. Step #2 Cover its burrow or hide with a heavy wet cloth. Dont forget if they have a back door exit cover that too. Use tongs when doing this...the spider may mistake you for a extra meal.[ATTACH type="full"]44766[/ATTACH] Step #3 Spray down the poo with water...dont be stingy.[ATTACH type="full"]44767[/ATTACH] Step #4 Scrape the poo with a razor blade or rubber scraper...a old credit card will work.

You may need to use more water and another towel. [ATTACH type="full"]44769[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]44770[/ATTACH] Step #6 After your glass is clean pick up any bolus or feeder remnants before removing the wet cloth.
