How to suspend crickets?

I have a P. comoraegrandensis in a 115g tank with 8 Dendrobates leucomelas. The tank dimensions are 36x24x30. I feed dusted FF's to the frogs and the gecko comes down and eats with them occasionally. I want to give him something larger but am having trouble feeding him crickets, because they tend to fall down quickely and get lost in the vegetation. Does anyone have any technique to keep the crickets up towards the top of the viv so that he can come and eat them before they escape?

Why not just suspend a deli cup with crickets in it, and leave half the lid on. That way, crickets probably wont escape so quickly and the gecko can come down into the deli cup and eat

Out of curiosity, what kind of geckos do you guys cup feed, and what prompted you to use that method?

I cup feed my chahoua. I had trouble with the insects hiding in the papertowel. Now my chewys have no trouble catching bugs. I also used this method when I was keeping chameleons.
