Does anyone use tea balls or infusers to control hop pieces during the boil? Seems to me it would work the same as a hop spider, but I may be wrong.
I'm looking at this one on Amazon. I tried searching 3 different forums on this board with zero results.

I use one. I started this same type of thread few years ago. Works great. Get a bigger one, they have huge ones. The one I use could fit 3 oz of so pellet hops and oz or 2 leaf hops.
 
I used to dry hot with tea balls and it didn't work out that well. Hops were too concentrated and not really wetted the same as loose.
