There's no doubt that more bird lovers would feed live mealworms to their garden birds if only they could get over the sight of all those wriggling little creatures. The rewards of feeding live mealworms far outweigh any misgivings you may have about their wiggle, and the benefits to birds - in particular during the nesting and fledgling season - can be spectacular and can make the difference between survival or otherwise.

“The worms were a lot smaller than I expected and unfortunately didn't attract the bird I wanted, they were all eaten by pigeons.”

“Was in two minds about buying these but was convinced by the recommendation of the proprietor; to summarise they are a great purchase. The worms are easy to care for, the birds love them and having used them for two years, the number of sparrow fledglings has notably increased in my garden. Give them a go!”

“I bought 6 x 40g tubs which I find conveniently presented and come in bran feed. These will last me about 2 weeks. I store the tubs in the fridge, so they are less active and they keep fine. The small birds really love them and they have been a much needed food source for their chicks this year because the cold April and wet May and June meant few insects when the birds needed them. I have sometimes bought the 250g size which arrive packed between cardboard egg trays, so you need to be sorted into smaller containers and to add food.”

“Bought a few bags over the summer and the worms are always healthy and plump. Blackbirds and Robins are feasting on these. I sprinkle them on the edges of the lawn first thing in the morning and early evening.”

“Now they have been packaged differently it's very easy to remain 'hands off' when laying the mealworms down. Absolutely loved by all the birds - wonderful to watch their enjoyment,”

“Live meal worms were excellent - it was good to receive them in small containers - much easier to handle. Robin quickly found them (and was pleased as far as we could tell - it was disappointed when they had all gone!)”

“While the mealworms were fine. The delivery was terrible. The mealworms came inside a white plastic sac and were only wrapped in newspaper. By the time I got to them, the mealworms were all over the inside of the sac and were a real mess to sort out. I don't think this is an acceptable way to send live animals to people.”
