 These lively insects are raised with quality diets in our special facilities. We rear them especially for pets, providing a great source of proteins and vitamins. Our crickets come in seven sizes, from pinheads to adults - sizes to satisfy the natural instincts of predators large and small.

Most reptiles do not chew their food but swallow it whole. As a general rule, crickets should be no longer than the distance between the eyes of the animal consuming them.

Our Mealworms are raised in complete organic fashion. These little beetle larvae grow to be about one inch long and are great for herps, birds, and small animals. They keep for weeks at 38-45° Fahrenheit.

Storing and care of mealworms
For optimal results check your order for seasonal damage and chill all mealworms in the refrigerator to 45°. Bug Company mealworms that will be sold within a few days should be placed in our Bluebird Display Rack. Keep them in the fiber cans they came in - DO NOT USE PLASTIC CONTAINERS TO DISPLAY MEALWORMS AT ROOM TEMPERATURE! We suggest that you warm all mealworms out of the refrigerator at least once a week and allow them to eat. Feed pieces of apple or carrot for up to 24 hours and, if consumed, replace their bedding with a suitable product like red wheat bran. Return fed mealworms to cold storage or to your room temperature display rack as needed. Call us at 800-451-2576 with any questions you have.
