Cold Weather Advisory

Mealworms may appear lifeless during cold weather due to dormancy. This is normal. Follow these care steps to revive them:

  1. Unpack immediately and ensure airflow
  2. Keep at room temperature (18–25°C / 64–77°F)
  3. Do not use direct heat – warming too fast can kill them
  4. Gently agitate the bulk bags and lay them flat
  5. Allow several hours for full recovery

99% of mealworms recover if treated correctly.

Storage & Growth Tips

  • Ideal Temperature: 20–28°C (68–80°F)
  • Ideal Humidity: 50–70%
  • Avoid high humidity
