WHY FEED LIVE MEALWORMS?

Spring and summer are incredibly demanding for garden birds.

Parents are:
• feeding hungry chicks
• searching constantly for insect food
• moulting
• burning huge amounts of energy

And modern gardens often simply do not contain enough natural insects.

LIVE mealworms provide:
✔ natural protein
✔ moisture and hydration
✔ fats and amino acids
✔ easy-to-digest nutrition for chicks and adults

And unlike dried mealworms… they wriggle.

Birds absolutely LOVE them.

How to feed live mealworms

Offer in a shallow dish or live-food feeder
Feed little and often
Place feeders near shrubs or hedges for cover
Feed in the morning and evening

Every order of live mealworms is packed fresh here on our Herefordshire farm before being carefully dispatched so they arrive lively and ready to feed.

Wiggly Wigglers began on our family farm more than 30 years ago, and today we still pack and ship our products here while working to improve soil health, wildlife habitats and regenerative farming.

When you feed the birds with Wiggly Wigglers, you’re supporting both garden wildlife and a our family British farm.

Why live mealworms matter
During spring and summer, parent birds need protein-rich insects to feed their chicks.
Live mealworms provide the moisture and nutrition young birds need to grow strong and survive.
Feeding them is one of the simplest ways to support garden wildlife.

Storage & Freshness

  • Store in a cool, dark place (around 8–10°C).
  • Use a Tupperware or shallow container with small air holes.
  • Add bran or porridge oats for bedding.
  • Add a few carrot or potato slices for moisture.
  • Clean out uneaten vegetables every few days.
  • Feed within 5–7 days for best results.

Wiggly Tip:
If your worms look sleepy, they’re just cool — warm them up gently and they’ll soon be lively again.

Wiggly tip
Feed little and often. Birds quickly learn where the mealworms appear and will soon be waiting for you.

What Happens When You Start Feeding Mealworms

The first time you put mealworms out you may only see one or two birds.

But birds learn quickly.

Robins, blackbirds and thrushes soon recognise the routine and will often be waiting for you when you come into the garden.

Many Wiggly Wigglers customers tell us their robins now follow them around the garden or sit on the fence waiting for their daily mealworms.

Once birds discover them, mealworms often become the most popular food in the garden.

Wiggly Tip: Keep a small container by the kitchen door. Robins quickly learn your routine and will often wait for you each morning.

What our customers say

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!
James T.
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!
