Suppose an insect’s body gets upside down and their wings get attached to the surface due to water drops? What can a human do to help them without damaging their wings or body?

    I did something similar, the first thing i did was to clean the surroundings of the water/droplets it had. I should get a microfiber cloth or an absorbent that matches your properties.

      The reason why I specify this type of material is because wet paper can break off and harden, and cotton can leave some thin fibers behind that wrap around the insect. But, if done carefully enough, any absorbent material can work.
