As most of the babies were on the lid that's where I began. Using a small piece of thin card I coaxed them one by one into the vials, most went quite happily. Those that wandered off the lid into the 9lt box were easy to catch using the vial as a catch cup and the card slid under, once I turned the vial upright most were happy to stay. I only had 1 escape from the 9lt box and that was easily spotted on the white sheet.  One thing I did notice was any that avoided the vial tended to drop on a web rather than run so they were easy to re-catch.</blockquote>
