If there's a method to get insects to hold still, I've yet to learn it.

I often refrigerate insects for anywhere from an hour to overnight before photographing and then releasing them, it works well with most insects although some warm up so fast it's not effective. However, the few spiders on which I tried that method were all killed so now I just have to be patient and chase them around the plant.
