Quality mealworms? (TSC, Walmart, Grubblies)

[JCinNM]

Ya know the scares we get every couple years regarding dog treats and toys and food? I was wondering if there is a “safer” brand of dried mealworms? I don’t know all the things that could go wrong in the growing, feeding, drying, packaging of mealworms. I have always been nervous buying things made in China. (Don’t want to grow my own right now. They really stink!)

Have you considered buying live ones?

I get Fluker's Dried Soldier Worms from Amazon. They are not from China.

Have you considered buying live ones?

Yes. But that is so expensive.

Yes. But that is so expensive.

Not really. I think there's a bug website that has like 2k for 10 bucks

We get the Walmart ones because they aren’t hollow, they have some “meat” and our bird seem to prefer them. TSC I have had issues with bugs in the mealworms. Like living crawling around bugs.
