About This Product

Josh's Frogs Giant Mealworms (500 count) are packaged in 2 16 oz containers with wheat bran. These giant mealworms are about 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" in length, because they are a natural product sizes may vary slightly. Giant Mealworms have long been a staple feeder insect in the reptile and amphibian hobby. Actually larvae of the darkling beetle Tenebrio molitor, giant mealworms are inexpensive and easy to store before feeding them to your reptile or amphibian.

How to Store

When Josh's Frogs ships giant mealworms they are already stored on wheat bran without food - exactly how you want to keep them. Keep giant mealworms at 45-55F to prolong their lifespan. As giant mealworms worms go bad, they will become dark in color and eventually turn black and spoil. Discard any black giant mealworms. Older giant mealworms may pupate. These pupae may still be offered to your pet. Discard adult beetles, as most animals find these distasteful. Under ideal conditions, giant mealworms should keep for several weeks.
