I've heard that said many times, and having no direct experience with them, I've often wondered if that just means you shouldn't apply any force to pull them from a perch or if you shouldn't touch them period. Would it be ok to handle them if you're somehow lucky enough to have one that'll climb onto you of its own will, or is even that a no-no?
