You need to get him in a shell. NOW! If he isn't moving at all it may be too late but you can manually put him in a shell if necessary. Rinse him off, rinse out a shell and gently uncurl his abdomen and maneuver him into the shell. Wear protective gloves if you are afraid. I would be. Once he is in the shell, tap him on the head. If he is still alive and has the strength he will curl himself further in. Cover him, keep it dark, quiet and calm. Leave honey, pb, and bee pollen to help give him a better chance since those are for strength.
