Are Tarantulas normally more aggressive right before a molt? My G. pulchra is a lot more aggressive than my E. Compestratus but she is nearing her next molt.

I also don't know if losing a limb can make a T more aggressive or not.

Lastly, are there anything I need to do other than spray the cage down before a molt?

Thanks

IO'd think that a upcoming motl would make a t more aggresive so it could secure a safe place to molt and scare off any threats, as for loss of limb I'd say yes to that tooa anythign with a 'weakness' in the animal kingdom=lunch so its better to give off a good shown then show an injury and yes keep humid up tank and crickets out cuss they'll munch its soft exo. other then that let it molt wherever is choses and dont bug it till it hardens
