How to re-house a tarantula

The following sequence of photos will show how to safely move a tarantula to new tank / enclosure using the bottle technique.

First we get the new tank / enclosure ready

Entice the tarantula into the bottle

now the spider is contained in the bottle, we can now move to a new tank.

I used my forceps to contain the spider, however you can use a piece of card.

remove the lid, and gently push the spider out from the top.

there we have the spider successfully re-housed with no problems.
