Webbed Water Dish

So my GBB has webbed over the entire cage including the water dish. The last time I tried to clean out the dish it ended up uprooting basically it's entire cage and I know that has to be stressful. Would it be more beneficial to just let it dry out like once a month or do I absolutely need to get it out to clean it?

You might try using a pair of scissors to cut away just the webbing that is over the water dish and leave the rest there.

I use scissors where possible or kabab stick to "unpick" the webbing as gentle as possible. Seems to have worked well with little disturbance to the T

My obt did the same with its bottle cap. Every day it would be tipped over so I'd put it back an fill it. Then the t would tip it over. I think it finally had enuf and took the cap to the bottom of the cube and webbed the crap out of it. So now the enclosure gets misted late in the evening every few days.
