Why Choose to Feed Wild Birds Mealworms?

What are Mealworms?Mealworms are the dried larval form of the mealworm beetle, which means they are a fantastic food source for any birds or animals who would naturally have an insectivorous diet. As well as wild birds, they can be fed to most reptiles and fish, and can be used in fishing baits. Our mealworms are frozen and then roast-dried, meaning they maintain as many of their natural nutrients as possible. They are also 100% natural, with no added colours, flavours or preservatives. |
Part of a Balanced DietMany wild birds rely on the natural protein of insects to supplement their diet, keeping them healthy and helping them to maintain and repair muscle mass. Because dried mealworms give just the right type of protein birds need, they are a fantastically versatile feed for a huge range of wild bird species, including blackbirds, robins, bullfinches, greenfinches, starlings, dunnocks, tree sparrows, house sparrows, song thrushes, wrens and yellowhammers. |
A Year Round FeedMealworms can be fed to wild birds all year round, either as a ground or table feed, or in mealworm feeders. They are particularly great for wild birds in winter, as the cold weather will likely have killed off most insect life. If you are using mealworms as a wild bird feed in the spring, we would recommend soaking them in lukewarm water for around 20-30 minutes beforehand. This makes them more attractive to the birds, and makes them softer and more palatable for smaller birds and fledglings. |
