I use the same method for both of the scenarios. If I have to move a T or when I still used crickets as feeders.

I take a large wheelie bin (the kind every use as roach enclosures). If the T escape, there is plenty of roam to trap it again. As for the crickets, I open their tub and let them "escape" and catch them once the are inside the wheelie bin.

When it came to pin heads I took a silver sucker with a long piece of fish tank pipe and sucked them up... Used this method successfully with small turks as well.

Just want to thank everyone for their brilliant advice. Managed to successfully move my H. Lividum and P. Regalis. Was extremely nervous at first but after doing it I am sure it will become much easier in the future when the need arises again.

The cricket ideas I will surely try today when I feed them.

Thank you yet again... Surely made my life easier

Excellent! Congrats!!

@ Uncle

It will definitely get easier and less nerve wrecking in future

Just one piece of advice....Don't ever become careless or reckless otherwise you WILL pay the price :evil:

Today is definitely a happy day for me, my P. Regalis seems to have accepted its new home over the weekend, seems not to eat yet, but it started "building" its home over the weekend and for me that is a good sign, maybe I am stupid to think like that, so if so, please inform me.

My H. Lividum seemed to be more full of nonsense, still not eating, but it finally started burrowing this afternoon and for me that is a good sign.

Now I know that they not eating cause it can also mean that they are in the beginning phases before they start to molt, but if that is not the case, how long until they start eating?

You are stupid for thinking like that...
Just joking. When they start webbing or burrowing its definitely a good sign.
Give them another few days and try again, although in my limited experience, pokies tend to eat whenever they get a chance, so maybe its in premoult.
