Tweezers?

[sbattisti]

I've heard a lot of people say they use tweezers to get crickets out, if they're grossed out by them.

Question: Where the heck do you find tweezers of the right size?? I feel like I've looked everywhere, and can't find anything but giant salad tongs or normal human tweezers!

tweezers = all day

Yah, I'm just looking for a way to pick a whole mess of dead ones out of my first order.

scrape them into a pile in the middle of the bin, and scoop up with a piece of cardboard.

You will spend all day long using tweezers. Just pick them up with your hands. If you don't like touching them, then go to your local pharmacy and get some thin latex gloves (like doctors use) and pick them out. Then just throw the gloves away. Sorry to be blunt, but eventually you will end up using your hands. Just force yourself to do it now...

I have a few pair of these laying around for various jobs with my feeders and Beardie.

For my 8-year old. He's still a little creeped out.

Honest.

Me, I'm a big tough guy. In fact, after watching your dubia sorting video, I'm thinking of getting a tattoo across my chest saying "Don't make me go BLAPTICA on your a**."

:laughhard:
Now, I don't care who you are that's funny right there.

Nothing wrong with tweezers, I get a pair in each hand and I'm pulling Dubia out of the bin like Edward Scissorhands. Apparently, most of you cannot catch a fly with chopsticks!!

I got a big pair from Hobby Lobby for 3.29 they are long and I dont have to use my little tweezers anymore ,YEAH.

Crickets I always grab by hand. For Dubias and Super (NO I am NOT picking them up by hand!), I use the tweezers (Most pet stores carry the long ones) and I wield them like a weapon!
