They're also a godsend during moulting and dry spells, providing hydration and supporting feather regrowth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHygienic and Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cultivated to be clean and odourless, our mealworms are easy to store, easy to handle, and ensure a fresh, hassle-free experience. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnhances Bird Watching:\u003c\/strong\u003e LIVE mealworms encourage a variety of garden birds to visit your space. From Robins and Blackbirds to Great Tits and Wrens, watch as your garden becomes a hub of avian activity and song. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBirds That Love Mealworms:\u003c\/strong\u003e Our mealworms are especially popular among ground-feeding birds such as Blackbirds, Robins, Song Thrushes, and Starlings, but are also eagerly consumed by a wide range of UK bird species including Tits, Wrens, Finches, and even the occasional Great Spotted Woodpecker. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLive vs. Dried Mealworms: Why Live is Best\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile keeping a stash of dried mealworms can be handy for emergencies, nothing beats the benefits of live mealworms for your garden birds. Live mealworms contain vital moisture, crucial for chicks in the nest, as they represent the only way these young birds can hydrate. Live bird food like our LIVE Mealworms from Wiggly Wigglers not only offer this essential hydration but also deliver a more natural feeding experience that can help young birds thrive. Always remember, live bird food is best for the health and development of your garden birds. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing Suggestions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use a steep sided shallow container and the best time to put mealworms out is in the morning as this is the meal your birds rely on most (as they have had all night without food and can lose a huge amount of their bodywight overnight). To keep larger birds from monopolising the supply, consider using a specialist feeder where the roof of the feeder is low enough to discourage larger birds (or even a caged feeder that allows smaller birds safe access). Mealworms can be served alone or mixed with other seed mixes to create a more enticing offering. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnvironmentally Responsible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Committed to sustainability, we ensure our mealworms are produced with minimal environmental impact, providing you with a product that’s not only good for the birds but also kind to the planet.
