Worm Care
- Upon arrival, it is important to remove the thin fabric inside the cup and discard it, as this is for shipping purposes only.
- Upon arrival, it is very important to feed your Minimealworms a slice of potato or other vegetable so they can regain the moisture lost during shipping.
- Make sure your Minimealworms have fresh air circulation! If you keep them in the cup(s) provided, you must "stagger-stack" multiple cups making sure that the air holes remain open and clear. Or just leave the lid(s) off entirely. If keeping in a different container, keep uncovered or make sure the lid you use is well vented for air circulation.
- Keep them in bran or oats, with a potato slice or other vegetable for them to feed on.
- You may "gut-load" as you see fit.
- Keep at room temperature, refrigeration will kill them.
Storage Tips:
- Keep in container of your choice, with proper air circulation.
- Keep in substrate of your choice.
- Feed slice(s) of potato or other vegetable every or every other day, or as it disappears. It is important to feed them as needed so that they will retain moisture.
- Keep at room temperature (75 degress is the optimum temperature).
- They can last a month or more before they morph into beetles.
Please Note:
When shipped in winter months, the worms may go dormant during transit.
Give them time to warm up to room temperature to regain their full activity.
Remember... these are Minimealworms!
These are not common standard mealworms and are not similar to them in care requirements.
They are highly active so they have a higher metabolism and require more moisture and nutrition during storage.
Please Follow the Care Guidelines Listed Above for Best Results.
