Good call gear, I sometimes use extra wax to flux when they get thick. I havent had anything dive into my pot yet but i guess you could just skim it off.

Just how did it get under the melt? That's a lot of surface tension to break through. I have slowly submerged wasps into the melt and got a lot of bubbling but no explosion.
