Ive heard of someone saying metal tongs or something like that, i thought gloves maybe but youll ruin the gloves lol, but i understand ur pain theyre so tricky!!

Gloves are a good idea. I would wrap in newspaper for extra ensurance.

Gloves or I wrap a dish towel around cactus when repotting

There is a reason I keep this in the back. I still have scars from all the glauchids.

Sadly, I got frustrated with getting the glochids stuck in my hands and repotted mine into the trash can.
