I don't believe in Tong feeding. Many New T Keepers over supply their Ts with food . If your spider refuses, Wait a week, even two.

Then only place One in to see . I wouldn't dig out the Burrow to get a Cricket.

If Your using Crickets ( I do) limit the places for them to hide. Use your tongs ( Nice long ones) To Clean up and even catch live Crickets. It takes a while to catch a Cricket with tongs but you'll be a Master in no time. ( I will Leave them in Overnight and check the next Day)


Iso-Pods and Springtails work in More humid tanks , But a B.smithi shouldn't be that Humid.

One Tip for a New Comer ... Keep the water dish full , especially after a Molt.

Hope this was Helpful
