(Zophobas morio)
A Bearded Dragon's Favorite!
Another excellent pet food source. Superworms are the larvae of a beetle
and are loaded with protein. Superworms are approximately 2" long, have a soft
body and a super long life span. Our Superworms are sold by the bulk of 250's
500's or 1000's or are prepackaged, 100 per cup.
Bulk Superworms should be stored in a plastic box at room temperature. Feed only
small bits of vegetable matter, but not more than they will eat in a day.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not refrigerate Superworms. It will kill them.

Shipping to an Apartment
FedEX will deliver your package to an Apartment. However, they will not
leave the package at the front door of an Apartment if you are not there.
If you make an order and have shipped to an Apartment, it is your responsibility
to be home when FedEX makes their delivery. If you cannot be home, have the
shipment sent to your place of employment or to a friend's house.
We will not guarantee shipments where FedEX makes an attempt to deliver to an
Apartment and no one is home.
Consider Shipping your Crickets and Worms to a FedEX
Staffed Location
If your temperatures are very hot or very cold and you
reduce the risk of receiving dead product, think about shipping your crickets/worms to a
FedEX staffed location.
To get the closest location of a FedEX Staffed Location to you,
click on this
FedEX Locator and put your zip code in.
Do a search on FedEX staffed Location. If you find one close to you,
choose your Ship To address as the address of the FedEX staffed location.
Your order will avoid the hot trip in the FedEX van and FedEX will call you when
they arrive.
Please note: FedEX also lists authorized reseller locations.
These locations may or may not charge a pick up fee. FedEX Staffed
Locations do not charge a pick up fee.
Shipping to a PO Box
Only the Post Office can ship to a PO Box. Since we don't use the Post
Office as a shipper, we cannot ship to PO Boxes. It is your responsibility to put
in the correct shipping address. We need a physical address.
If you put in an incorrect address and we ship, FedEX will try to find the correct
address and make the correction. FedEx will charge us $10.00 for the service.
That $10.00 will be charged back to you - so please make sure you put in your correct
address!
If the delivery is delayed due to you putting in the wrong address, the guarantee
is void.

FedEx as our shipper
On June 3rd 2012, we switched from UPS to FedEx. While UPS was a
great partner for nearly 8 years, FedEX came back with a more aggressive
proposal which we could not ignore. Our overall shipping prices were
reduced and we passed those savings on to you!
