Everything you need to keep your live mealworms properly fed, spread out, lively and in great condition — without buying any fancy equipment.
Inside your kit:
500g Fresh Live Mealworms
1kg Wiggly Live Mealworm Bedding
1kg Wiggly Farm Blend for Live Mealworms
All you need at home is an old ice-cream tub or similar container, a carrot or two and a kitchen sieve.
That's it.
Why have we put this kit together?
Because live mealworms are one of the very best foods you can offer your garden birds — but they are also a living food.
And if you've gone to the trouble and expense of buying them, it makes sense to look after them properly.
For years we've supplied live mealworms with simple bran-based bedding, and that works perfectly well.
But we started thinking about it in the same way we think about everything else here on the farm.
If the mealworm is going to feed the bird, why wouldn't we feed the mealworm well first?
Hence this kit.
The bedding gives your mealworms a clean, dry place to burrow and spread out.
The Farm Blend gives them a more varied food.
A little carrot provides moisture.
And giving them plenty of space, keeping them cool and sieving out the accumulated frass helps keep the whole lot fresh and manageable.
Better cared-for mealworms. Less waste. More value from your box. And a fantastic fresh food for your birds.

★★★★★ Excellent service from such lovely people! The birds are very happy with their British-grown seed, and my composting worms are happy too. What more could you ask for? 🐦🪱 Anne.S
Mealworms are not actually worms at all. They're the larval stage of the darkling beetle, Tenebrio molitor.
More importantly for the Robin waiting impatiently outside your back door, they're insects.
And insects are a completely natural part of the diet of many of our garden birds.
Live mealworms provide protein, natural moisture and energy, and their movement makes them particularly attractive to insect-feeding birds.
You can expect interest from birds including:
Robins
Wrens
Blackbirds
Blue Tits
Great Tits
Nuthatches
Starlings
Thrushes
House Sparrows
Blackcaps
Pied Wagtails
…and plenty of other opportunistic diners once word gets around.
Live mealworms can be especially valuable when birds are working hard — during breeding and fledging, through periods of poor weather and as the seasons change.
The current RSPB and BTO bird-feeding guidance includes mealworms as a food that can be offered throughout the year, with small amounts recommended during the warmer months.
And, unlike a dry food, a live mealworm naturally contains moisture too.
What makes LIVE mealworms different?
Dried mealworms are handy and have their place.
But live mealworms are the closest thing you can put on a feeder to the insects many birds would naturally spend their day hunting for.
They move.
They're soft.
They contain natural moisture.
And birds very quickly learn where to find them.
If you've never fed live mealworms before, don't be terribly surprised if your Robin has the whole arrangement worked out before you do.

Brilliant live worms and great service!
I ordered a batch of live composting worms for my new wormery, and they arrived in perfect condition — lively, healthy, and ready to get to work straight away. The packaging was eco-friendly, and the team even included a little guide on how to settle them in. My kitchen scraps are disappearing fast, and I’ve already started harvesting my first bit of worm compost. Couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic bokashi composting advice
As a complete beginner to bokashi composting, I really appreciated how helpful the team were. They answered all my questions quickly and gave me simple, clear instructions to get started. The bokashi bran is top quality and smells fresh and pleasant. After just a few weeks, I’ve turned my kitchen waste into brilliant compost-ready material with no odour or mess. Highly recommended!

Top-notch British birdseed mix
The British birdseed from Wigglys is superb. It attracts a lovely variety of garden birds — robins, finches, and even a pair of goldfinches have started visiting regularly. You can tell it’s a quality mix with no fillers or dust. Delivery was quick, and everything was packaged sustainably. It’s become my go-to source for bird feed!
If you’ve lifted the lid on your wormery or in-soil composter and discovered that the worms have acquired some six-legged housemates, don’t panic. A few ants aren’t usually a problem....

“I’ve always been interested in farming, gardening and food, but Wiggly Wigglers has inspired me to take that interest much further and look at the whole thing in a much more holistic way. I love feeding the birds, making compost and keeping quail, and our Bokashi kit has genuinely revolutionised how we deal with food waste as a family. It’s helped us close so many loops at home – turning what we used to throw away into something useful. Once you start thinking like that, you see opportunities everywhere.” J O-B
