Predator Foods Bulk Live Mealworms - 1,000 Count (Large - ~.75")

The company really came through! At first I was very upset because the large meal worms I ordered were actually minuscule, but when I contacted the company, they immediately sent out large lovely mealworms. Very easy to work with folks. I will definitely be a repeat customer!!! Packaged nicely. Not a single dead one! Our lizard will love these!

Other reviews cautioned that these were small mealworms, not large. And they were right! However, I have several juvenile geckos and these mealworms are the perfect size for them. All larva seemed alive upon arrival, and were eaten with gusto. I will order again. ****UPDATE 12/21 As of this update, I have ordered these mealworms 18 times. (Yes; 18 times.) Quality of the order REALLY depends on seller, and I will list below the sellers that have given me 5-star experiences: Predator Foods: they ship their worms in plastic deli cups with bedding; great packaging! This is my go-to seller when they are available. Exopet: The best one so far; huge mealworms! SO MANY of them! They ship in a zip-tied cloth bag and the mealworms have pieces of paper egg carton to climb on and pieces of vegetables to eat; great packaging! I have only bought from this seller once, so will update accordingly if anything goes awry next time. DBD pet: they ship in a bag with newspaper for the worms to hide in; decent packaging. I definitely recommend the above sellers, and have paid a couple dollars more than lowest price to make sure I buy from one of the three. For whatever reason, Amazon lists all of my purchases of these mealworms as being from Predator Foods, which is highly inaccurate. I have to go to order history and do digging to see the names of the actual sellers. The remaining sellers are 4 stars or less, and include malta1553, badassbugs1, and VM feeders. In a pinch, I recommend VM feeders among these. None were outright awful, though. ********** I have updated my review to 5-stars, keeping seller in mind. Always a great experience through Predator Foods, though!

Ordered 1000 ct mealworms on March 30, received 6 days later on April 5th. They were not shipped until April 3rd late afternoon (per USPS: "Accepted at USPS Origin Facility OGDEN, UT 84401 April 3, 2023, 4:28 pm"). All mealworms were DOA. Most were dark and many were black and hard. I ordered these for the Mama and Daddy Carolina Wren birds that feed them to their baby birds born in a nest in my garage. I had been buying mealworms at a local petstore, but they are so expensive and you don't get many. The birds love them, but they will only eat LIVE bugs and worms. These DOA's arrived yesterday, and the babies are fledging today in the garage. Really would have loved to been able to offer the babies LIVE mealworms for their first day of flight. Very disappointing experience. TO GET A REFUND: It was also frustrating that the order page has a return/refund tab, but then when you click it, it says "not eligible for return". No other options are available or offered on the order page. I looked back at the product advertisement page and it does say "eligible for refund or replacement if you contact seller with photos" in the description... and it also states this on the right-hand side under the "buy now" tab. But! There is no tab or option to contact the seller! Not even on the seller's storefront page. So, I went to the "help" section on Amazon (scroll down, it is the second to last section near bottom (dark blue background) on the right side, the last option on list)... and I hit the "help" tab. I selected options for Amazon customer care call to me. I explained the situation and lack of any refund options/tabs despite the product ad stating it was "eligible for refund". The Amazon customer care rep promptly refunded my purchase price in full. I'm glad Amazon took care of it, but I still wish I had LIVE mealworms today! :/

They arrived in a nice container, almost all of the worms were alive, they were a good size. I am very pleased with this product.
