Large Mealworms

Mealworms are the larval stage of the Tenebrio molitor darkling beetle and serve as a favored food source for many small reptiles, amphibians, and arachnids, such as leopard geckos and tarantulas.

Our pre-packaged mealworms offer a hassle-free option for enthusiasts seeking an alternative to loose or bulk feeders, as well as for pet shops or distributors looking for a neatly packaged product. These large mealworms measure around 1" long.

Storage Guidelines:

Keep mealworms refrigerated at a temperature range of 42 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. A wine cooler or the upper shelf of a refrigerator door works well for this. At these temperatures, they enter a dormant state and remain in optimal condition for up to 30 days.

Before offering to your pets, lightly coat with calcium powder for added nutrition.
