[QUOTE="Lentulus, post: 226089, member: 34044"] I use aquarium tongs. 10inch long pack of two can be found for around $5 on Amazon. I do not use the tongs for precision feeding as some of my Ts are very fast. I toss the bugs in from a distance and let the spider do its thing. Don’t want them to bite the tongs or myself. I am under no illusion that I would be fast enough to move out of the way anyhow. They get used mainly for pulling things out of the T’s container and because I’m afraid of roaches. Tarantulas do not scare me. Rattlesnakes, giant lizards, the Pacific Ocean, small lizards, the vastness of space and time, and concepts of my own mortality do not unnerve me. Roaches do, go figure. Yucky. Gross. Vile little satan spawn. [/QUOTE]
