Product description
Josh’s Frogs Mealworms
Mealworms are the larvae of the Darkling Beetle Tenebrio molitor and have long been a staple feeder insect in the reptile, amphibian, and bird hobby because of how inexpensive and easy they are to store.
Mealworms are great feeder insects for:
Leopard GeckosCrested GeckosFat Tail GeckosBearded DragonslizardsWild birdsFish. In fact, some fishermen swear by Mealworms, calling them the ideal bait!
These Mealworms are about ½”-¾” in length, but sizes may vary slightly because they are a natural product.
How to Feed When Using With Reptiles/Amphibians
Mealworms can be fed as a treat or staple, depending on the animals you’re feeding. Make sure to dust Mealworms with a proper vitamin and mineral supplement before being fed to your pet. Feed Mealworms using feeding tongs or in a worm dish.
Older Mealworms may pupate, but these pupae may still be offered to your pet. Discard adult beetles, as most animals find these distasteful.
How to Feed When Using With Birds
Mealworms can be fed as a treat or staple for a wide variety of pet and wild birds like blue birds, orioles, grosbeaks, and robins.
Feed Mealworms by placing them in a deep plastic dish or feeder. Mealworms are climbers and will use wood sides to escape; so do not use a wooden bird feeder.
Wild birds absolutely love these high protein feeders as a treat and they can be taken back to the nest for fledglings.
How to Store
When Josh’s Frogs ships Mealworms, they are already stored on wheat bran without food – exactly how you want to keep them.
Keep Mealworms at 45-55F to prolong their lifespan. Under ideal conditions, mealworms should keep for several weeks.
As Mealworms worms go bad, they will become dark in color and eventually turn black and spoil. Discard any black Mealworms.

The worms receive positive feedback for their health and feeding ability, particularly for scorpions. However, customers disagree on the size of the mealworms, with several noting they are very small.

This company is amazing, I love them so much. I love the thick boxes and the live critters tape to let the delivery people know, your feeders arrive alive and happy. And as I always say, happy food is good food ð my gecko loves the quality

My impression from the very first time I ordered.
It arrived a week earlier than expected. The package was very well packed, the worms are fresh, alive, not spoiled, and odorless. Iâm impressed and will definitely keep ordering again and again.

Extremely healthy mealworms at a very competitive price.
Healthy and active mealworms (bounced back from shipment within 12hrs) that were shipped appropriately and in a timely fashion. Very minimal loss in the shipping process, detailed printed care sheet provided and just an overall great experiment. I’d consider this company one of the most reliable (ebay has cheated me numerous times eith numerous companies on the count). I just placed a larger order for 1,000 mealworms after giving the company a shot with a smaller shipment first. Their price is extremely competitive especially on larger orders.

They were alive
My little geko greatly appreciated his food. He was able to try something the pet store doesn’t have & he actually got his worms. The petco in our town never has his worms so being able to order them online is something I am grateful for. The items were alive & wiggling when I got them & fed him. I will be ordering these again as these seem to be more alive than what you can get from the store.
