How to drown a waterscorion

From my experience, yeah. I've received aquatic beetles and water bugs in deli containers with damp paper towels and they do fine ~90% of the time

 
I was wondering if anyone had anything to offer for this issue. Aquatics are uncommon, at least for me, finding the water scorpion  was amazing, I walked down

to the pond from our camp, and it was just there in plain sight. A devastating loss, and I wish I'd had taken better care of it on the way home. It's in my

collection now, but not exactly the same as having a pet for a month or 2. At least the mystery ground cricket is doing ok, and my desert darkling.

They breath air so most aquatic insects drown 100% of the time if shipped in water. Damp paper towel, moss, etc.
