This is a worry-free vendor! They are low-priced, and they ship fast! They send email purchase information, as well as shipping tracking information. I purchase mealworms from them and the worms always arrive in excellent condition, and looking better than the pictures they post on their website. I have purchased from them 3 times now and HIGHLY recommend them! A Very Satisfied Customer!!

Aloha,                                             I received my order of mealworms (2000) and was happy to see that they all made the trip to Hawaii in excellent shape and really lively, but the best part was how fast they got here, I am impressed! The bird we feed would rather eat your mealworms than the ones that I “used to”buy at our local pet supply store. I’m glad I found your web site, (I think the bird is glad I found your web site)  We’ll be ordering again.                                    Mahalo and Aloha!

I keep geckos in my classroom. I ran out of meal worms in the middle of the year and placed an order with this company. They quickly filled my order and were careful that the shipment didn't arrive on a weekend as I asked. They were very reasonably priced. I would recommend this company to anyone needing their products.

Michael H.

I was very pleased with the service and especially the great condition of the meal worms. They were very much alive and packed well. I received them in only three days! I would highly recommend The Exotic Nutrition Company. I will continue to use them in the future.

I always enjoy buying from Exotic Nutrition. They have everything I need to keep my Sugar Glider happy and healthy! Quick delivery, Great Prices! I will be a longtime customer for sure!

Deanna D.

I have ordered supplies for my sugar gliders from this company on several occasions. I always get everything I ordered and it arrives in a timely manner.

Amber B.

I have had very good service with Exotic Nutrition. The ordering process is very easy and shipping is very fast. The mealworms have been received live and our bluebirds always show up a certain time of day for feeding. The prices can not be beat. Exotic Nutrition has been cheaper than buying them locally. I am very pleased with Exotic Nutrition and will order from them next year when our bluebirds return.

Robert C.

The nationwide mealworm virus left me with two hungry geckoes who were spoiled. (Crickets? Not us!) so I was happy to find I could get mealworms quickly from :The Exotic Nutrition company. Delivery was quick, and the meal worms were healthy. And the spoiled geckoes are getting plump again.

Ruth D.

I have ordered from Exotic Nutrition a few times and have always received quality goods. Never have I been disapointed. Now my mailman is a different story as he cant seem to follow the instructions to leave my merchandise in the shade! Good going Exotic Nutrition!

Victoria L.

I was very pleased with the quality of the mealworms.

Getting them to release from the newspaper packing was a little of a challenge. But all in all it went smoothly.

The quality and size of the mealworms was far superior to the ones I have purchased locally from Wild birds Unlimited.

I will definitely reorder from Exotic Nutrition in the future.

Satisfied Customer

iI have been ordering mealworms thru the internet for close to 10 years. I've had mealworms that originated from California to Louisiana.
 Quite by accident I chose you last time as I was unable to find available mealworms at the other places I tried.
 Without doubt, this order of mealworms was in the best shape of any I've ever gottten before. I couldn't believe it, but I only found 2 dead ones in all of the 5,000.  
 I also found that I might have save a few cents shopping through you as well.
 
I'll definitely let my friends who feed bluebirds know about you.

Curved walls keep small to medium sized mealworms contained. 3" across.

Lees' Mealworm Feeding Dish  $2.69

        CERAMIC MEALWORM FEEDING DISH

                                    

Mealworms need to be contained when they're placed inside the terrarium /cage or they will quickly escape by digging their way into the substrate where they will remain hidden until they metamorphose into an inedible beetle. More likely, they will simply die, with their decomposing bodies creating a banquet of harmful bacteria. The Mealworm Feeding Dish prevents mealworms from escaping, while allowing them to remain visible to the cage inhabitants.

Ceramic 3" Mealworm Feeding Dish  $3.49

                          CANNED INSECTS            

                           

Canned Insects are the latest in pet food nutrition and convenience. The full line of feeder insects are cooked in the can (called “retorting”) which locks in the flavor and freshness while also softening the exoskeleton for easier digestion. Suggested for Sugar gliders, Hedgehogs, Skunks and other insect eating mammals, wild birds & reptiles.

Keeping Your Mealworms Alive:                                 One of the best ways to offer a healthy food to wild birds,  is to offer  natural, live, canned or freeze dried insects. Mealworms are a fantastic way of providing both nutritional and dietetic diversity.
   The "common mealworm" (Tenebrio molitor) is probably the most widely raised feeder insect available. We keep them well fed with vitamin packed Exotic Nutrition's mealworm bedding/feed, so they deliver the highest nutritional value. Mealworms are extremely easy to keep. Just store them in your refrigerator at 45-50 degrees F. where they go into a dormant state and last for months. We suggest that you remove the mealworms from the refrigerator once per week, feed them Mealworm Bedding / Keeper along with raw potatoes. Allow the mealworms to feed for 24 hours, then place them back into the refrigerator for long term storage.
