    Description

    You will receive over 1100 live mealworms in a variety of sizes.  Most will be 3/4 of an inch.
    Live mealworms shipped directly from Georgia where we grow them.  We ship these worms out Monday - Thursday via USPS first class.    We always include many many extras just in case.  Live delivery is guaranteed as outlined.   They will be about  3/4 inch for the most part some will be a bit smaller some will be larger.  We do our sorting by hand with sieves so a bit of variation is to be expected.  We usually send the largest ones we can but if you prefer smaller ones just let me know.
    Worms going to locations with temps over 80 or under 40 should request that worms be held at the post office to obtain live guarantee.  We will label the box "Hold at Post Office"  at your request.  We recommend that you provide us with your phone number to write on the outside of the box so that the post office should call you when the worms arrive.   There is no cost for this extra service and will help ensure your worms are alive when you get them.  Don't leave them in a
    mailbox
    in the hot sun or in the heat or in very cold weather as they will die.
    PACKAGING ==== Currently we pack our worms in breathable cotton bag which is put into a ventilated box.  Boxes are labeled with stickers to indicate that live animals are enclosed.  We put a piece of vegetable in with the worms and crumple up a piece of paper to keep the bag open and to provide additional surface area for the worms.  Currently, we are using brown lunch sacks which we crumple up and which do not harm the worms and they can actually munch on them if they want.
    The mealworm is one stage of the tenebrio molitor's life cycle.  The mealworms turn into pupae as they mature and later turn into beetles before laying eggs to start the cycle again.
    SHIPPING---- When ordering more than one of these items, we combine the worms into a single box.
    Please give them several pieces of thinly sliced carrot or potato or soft bread when they arrive.  They love fresh banana skins and
    avocados
    and many other fruits and vegetables.  Be sure and was them first to avoid any pesticides.  This is their water source.  I
    f you have an issue with an order we must be notified the day of delivery.
    After your get them, they should live a few weeks quite nicely in a refrigerator.  However, if you wish to grow them out more you can feed them bread or cornmeal.   NOT CORN MEAL MIX...... it has salt and will kill them.  Just put about an inch or two of corn meal in a shoe box size pan and they will live in and eat the cornmeal. Add a piece of fresh vegetable like carrot or potato every few days and remove the old piece.  Mold is harmful to mealworms so don't leave old fruit or veggies in with them. Keep them at room temperature.
    They can be stored for about a month in the refrigerator.  Cooling them really slows down their metabolism and they will not eat or grow very much at all.  If you keep them in the refrigerator be sure and take them out about every 7 to 10 days and let them warm up and eat and get liquid to help them stay alive and healthy.
    We value your support and want to be your mealworm provider.  We strive to provide our customers with a very accurate description of our worms and to exceed your expectations.  The pictures above are of our worms.  We hope you enjoy Moxy Mealworms !  We do not accept returns as these are live animals.
