Keeping Small Standard Superworms with different feeder insects can be tricky and is generally not recommended. You should use separate containers tailored to each insect species.
Small Standard Superworms are packed in mealworm bedding that serves as their food source. Superworms should be kept at room temperature and never refrigerated. Provide moisture periodically by adding small pieces of fresh vegetables, such as carrots, potatoes, or apples, which also serve as food. Regularly remove uneaten food, waste, and dead worms to maintain a clean and healthy environment. Without an additional source of moisture, Small Standard Superworms become quite cannibalistic. Superworms cups that go untended for several weeks are likely to have significantly fewer live worms because of cannibalism.
It is our recommendation to use all your Small Standard Superworms within 3-4 weeks of their pack date.
