Default Scientists Map Out How to Nudge Small Asteroids into Earth?sOrbit

Maybe it would be safer to just grab the "mini moons" that Earth
captures periodically:

"But new research has unearthed (...unmooned?) evidence that our
planet occasionally captures “mini-moons” every once in a while.
These tiny asteroids zoom around our planet as temporary natural
satellites."


Wouldn't it be easier since it's already in Earth capture?
