I just slowly pull it off and if it destroys some webs they'll learn not to put them there. My versi is in a screw off top so theres no way i cant not destroy her webs a bit lol.

Pics.

Hmac girl was out. Very rare. Shes very shy and has the enclosure webbed up well.

Awww poor little buddy. (Pix!) I'm sure he'll rebuild.i just had a thought...would a little bit of olive oil rubbed on the places you don't want him to build harm him?

Spider guys? thoughts?

I'm not sure about olive oil. If they touch it it would be on their feet.

All my smaller versi, avics, urticans etc are in flip top containers. Try to not take the whole lid off. Give them more anchor spots lower than the lid.

Rich, for the 2 T's I'm getting from you, what size of those Really Useful Boxes should I use? I found them on Amazon, and I think I like them better than the ones I bought before...


If anyone else is interested in those boxes, look on Amazon. They're fairly cheap there. LOVE AMAZON!!!

I don't mind because I usually get free shipping since I order so much. I have a Prime account. Also, I'm ordering more stuff than just the boxes.
