[@PilotPhteven]

thinking the same thing... bit of powder versus random weird chemicals.. uuuuh.. I would say mixing rubbing alcohol + baby powder together (about 1 to 1 parts) and painting the sides with that paste and let it dry. Ant keepers use that a lot to keep ants inside of enclosures. And I guess they wouldn't do that if it wasn't safe? I would assume it would work the same for spiders.

[@foggerit2]

I'm partial about a sponge and olive oil for this one chief...

[@Helveteshit]

Most chemicals are harmless once in a dried condition unless ingested. But I doubt the spiders will do that. For example, acrylic paint is toxic to fish but can still be used in aquariums since once it is dry, it doesn't harm the fish.

[@mydogeatspuke]

That and using the same tongs seemingly without cleaning to push around slings after handling a fatally parasitic infected spider. Sloppy.

Whatever killed that beautiful big spider might be infectious. I hope you washed your hands and sterilized the tool you used to turn her over before going to the next spider enclosure.

FYI, if you take powder (baby powder a lot of people use) and mix it with alcohol (if you want it to dry quickly) or water (if you have more time) so that it forms a light, thin paste, you can then brush that on the edges of the container you wish to enclose them in, let it dry and then move your spiders. As the powder dries, it forms a “film” of sorts on the edge surface, which will prevent the, from climbing it. Just thought I would pass that along. Sorry for your loss, Hun.

That's the way I got into the hobby about two months ago 😅 watching his videos for years, learning, reading and getting one.. two... sixteen by now and still rising...

[@ParanormalC0w]

Between Petko, ExoticsLair, and Tarantula Kat, I’ve grown an appreciation and even a fascination for tarantulas, spiders, and arachnids in general. I got a scorpion (forest) a couple months ago, and just got my first tarantula (a juvenile Avicularia avicularia) about a month ago, and even a jumping spider. I’ve been wanting to get into the hobby since I was 14, but watching their channels has taught me so much about husbandry and about these creatures in general. They’ve shown me that they aren’t as scary in the traditional sense. My next goal is a tailless whip scorpion...and more tarantulas 😏 I have quite the wishlist.

[@DeathpriestYuki]

@@ParanormalC0w yeah I know what you mean. I learned alot from Petko and Richard (the tarantula collective) about care and husbandry and I'm proud of myself overcoming my fear of arachnids. I got a juvenile B. hamorii, a juvenile Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens and a B. boehmei sling as a start. I know own 16 tarantulas of 10 different species and my wishlist is still damn long 😅

Petko why not get a ten gallon glass aquarium and try the rain repellent on that? We can see through it to see what's happening and the spray is meant for glass so maybe it would work much better. (Hydrophobic means water repellent in this case btw. Hydrophobic can also be a reference to sick things that refuse water such as in cases of rabies but that's a different story) A funny thing happened while watching this video...I was laying in the tub watching the phone over the side on the floor (so I wouldn't risk dropping it in the bath water). When you were showing one of your small tarantulas that had dropped into the big bin a little house spider came cruising by the phone exactly the size of the tarantula as seen on the screen. It tripped me out but made me laugh too.

I’d say nematodes but they usually have a bunch sticking out of the spiders mouth and I couldn’t really see that here. I guess just give the mouth area a thorough investigation for little worms. Nematodes can clear out a whole tarantula collection if not properly taken care of. If not that, it was probably a digestive issue.

@The Dark Den, Don't know if you have space for it but... You know those plastic storage boxes that goes under the bed for socks and what not? With wheels? Regarding the spiders in 11:35, the main topic of the video. Once they outgrow their new enclosure. Perhaps you should try using one of those? It tends to come with good lids, it is plastic so you can create ventilation and most importantly. Due the footprint. They might do better in the communal manner in the long run. Plus, you can always only use a plastic piece of acrylic to have a separator so they don't have the full enclosure from the beginning. Then remove it as they grow bigger. But it will give them more room to dig and move around.

There is an acutal product called insect-a-slip. It is used by zoos and entomologists. It creates a non climbable barrier, and shouldn't kill your inverts. It is rather expensive (26 USD for 118 ml), but I doubt you need it often enough to be an insurmountable expense.

[@haleymorrison7639]

the funnel webs enclosure looks soo cool

[@TheGumiBear]

for anyone judging Petko's use of these chemicals, let me try and explain his train of thoughts: those chemicals are probably not harmful at all. thing is, there is probably not even anything that can come off, as with the powder. the powder can get stuck to the tarantula's legs, and maybe hinder their ability to climb later on. this however is merely a surface-treatment to give the walls of the container the lotus-effect - it adds a solid texture to the surface to make it difficult for water (and tarantulas) to stick to it. he waited for it to dry, so there should be nothing that can rub off to the T.

[@Tinyvalkyrie410]

Yes. Thank you. People don’t understand that just because something is “natural” it doesn’t mean it’s safe. There is a growing body of work showing talc increases risks for certain cancers.

@@jenetikitty well the stuff used vs insects is diatomaceous earth which is made of diatom shells, tiny microorganisms. I suppose its like the stage before limestone or w/e. but the microscopic shells are all hard and pointy. and talc is super soft. also I think a insect has to basically get covered in that stuff for it to work. I dont see how a tiny bitve talc on its feet would hurt a spider. and talc isnt diatomaceous earth anyway, I honestly dont think you can use talc the same way. oh well its done i just hope the spiderlets will be ok

@@SuperLoops That's true, diatomaceous earth is pretty awesome stuff. But if you google "talcum powder fleas" you'll find pages on that too.

I also see people saying it doesn't work.... Of course, I actually found myself struggling with fleas the other day--a real shock for someone with indoor only cats. and every single 'flea killer' I found, had at least one person saying "this doesn't work!!"
