Firstly bring bug repellent, swarms can and will interrupt the game.

Secondly i recommend using a throw away tame like a parasaur or something unless you want to farm several hundred blood packs

Using the web grab without fully pulling them in is a good way to hold smaller creatures in place when trying to knock them unconscious if I remember correctly
