Keeping Red Wigglers with different feeder insects can be tricky and is generally not recommended. You should use separate containers tailored to each insect species.
Red Wigglers are best stored in the refrigerator between 35°F–50°F. This mimics their natural cool habitat and slows their metabolism, keeping them alive longer. Avoid temperatures that are too cold or too hot as extreme temperatures can harm them. Regularly check the packaging to ensure the bedding remains moist, but not overly wet. If the bedding starts to dry out, add a few drops of water to maintain the right moisture level. Red Wigglers don’t eat much when stored at cool temperatures, but they may need occasional feeding if kept for more than a week. Some food options are ground oatmeal, crushed eggshells, cornmeal, or small vegetable scraps. Feed sparingly to avoid rotting food, which can harm them.
It is our recommendation to use all your Red Wigglers within 3-4 weeks of their pack date.
