Why it is listed

Fluker’s live mealworms print a scientific name, two size bands, official USD, and a live guarantee. They sit last among captured live SKUs because this PDP has no protein table and no gut-load hour window.

Editor note

Ranked #8 in best feeder insects.

7.3/10

Pros & cons

Pros

  • flukerfarms.com Live Mealworms PDP 2026-09-02: Tenebrio molitor; high in protein; medium 1/2"–3/4", large 3/4"–1". Schema.org price $6.50. Shop-by-product / live-insects listing $6.50–$128.00. Ships Monday–Thursday with Live Delivery Guarantee.
  • Shipped loose in a box or mailing tube depending on quantity; transfer into a plastic container with enough bedding to cover the worms (PDP).
  • Same Fluker’s live-arrival / winter 16°F / SWG / Hold For Weather policy as other live feeders. Claims within 2 business days.

Cons

  • ‘High in protein’ is not a percent on this PDP. No calcium or Ca:P figure. Mealworms are a convenience feeder; chitin and fat are not quantified here.
  • No state shipping ban printed on this mealworm PDP. Live weather policy still applies.
  • Must be transferred into bedding on arrival. Superworms are a different SKU.
