    I usually tip the enclosure lightly and chase them out carefully into the new one, I clean mine once every 6 months, but note, I spot clean and use a mix of plantation soil and vermiculite.
    Sure you can put cork in there, just a heads up, spiders are ultimate destroyers. So far every tarantula I owned chewed pieces out of the cork, it's really funny to see.
    If he's that small you can even use your hand to move him, like I do with my little sling right now, just be warned, they can be FAST.
    I'l take a picture of my enclosure and post it in a minute or two, I'l also add a picture of my sling, since he's currently in hiding (suspect he has to shed).

    And yeah, my windows get dirty instantly when misting, he's been in there for around a month or two.

    Oh guys need help here.
    My baby red knee got shed for the 4th time and got a piece of old shed stuck to his top part of the belly, it is thorax upper part that is stuck to it, can't take pic it is so fast, the moment I open the lid to take pic it disappears in his burrow.

    Try increasing humidity. It would help if I could see a pic. I need to see the exact problem and size of sling. How long has it been stuck on?

    A week or a little bit longer, I thought it might fall off.
    humidity is fine, substrate is exo earth and it is not dry yet, it also has a water dish too.

    No idea how to take pic, it is very very fast. Size.... Hm.... I'd say about 1,5" diagonally.

    Going to try to do that picture..... May be try to get it out of its little tank
