You can feed live mealworms - they have never been swept up in this OTT legislation, because they are not a by product or waste stream from anything else.

I hadn't realised that because I'm not that careful about sticking to the rules. Good to know - it would be good if the review means dried meal worms are also allowed in future though, for anyone who doesn't want to go to the trouble of farming their own or buying live.

England & Wales proposals were published when the consultant opened in Feb - hopefully attaching the pdf here will work...

Sorry @Perris I should have specified dried mealworm is prohibited. I don't have space to cultivate my own worms or black fly but, fortunately the cabbage white butterflies visited my trap crop so I have plenty of free-range, organic and fresh caterpillars to keep the quail going.
