If your pet seems overly fond of superworms compared to other insects, consider pausing their intake for a week or so.

What exactly are superworms?

Superworms are the larvae of Zophobas morio, a species of darkling beetle. They resemble mealworms but are larger and more robust, making them ideal as occasional treats or feeders for reptiles, amphibians, and certain arachnids.

Our pre-cupped packaging is perfect for enthusiasts seeking a hassle-free option compared to traditional "boxed" or "bagged" feeders, and for pet shops or resellers looking for a neatly packaged product.

What is the size of each superworm?

Our large superworms measure between 1 1/2" and 2" in length.

How frequently should superworms be fed?

Superworms can be included in a varied diet of feeder insects or given as occasional treats. Due to their elevated fat content, they should not be a primary food source.
