Give your ants the perfect protein boost with our premium mealworms. These insects are not only an excellent source of nutrition but are also incredibly easy to maintain, making them ideal for both small and large colonies. Whether you're caring for a founding colony of Lasius niger or a larger group, mealworms provide a steady, reliable source of protein.
 
Though 10 grams may not seem like much, these mealworms will grow as you feed them. For a small colony, like Lasius niger, 10 grams can last up to 6 months, with just one mealworm needed per week. They are easy to care for—simply keep them in the provided box and offer small pieces of potato or carrot once a week to keep them thriving.
 
Important Note: These mealworms will arrive alive. To feed them to your ants, we recommend boiling them first, as freezing tends to turn them black rapidly. Although we take precautions, we cannot guarantee that these mealworms are grain-mite free.
 
Keep your ants healthy and thriving with these nutritious mealworms!
