MealwormsMealworms
High-protein, live mealworms are an excellent addition to your backyard feeding plan. In addition to attracting bluebirds, many other species enjoy these 3/4" treats. If you haven't used mealworms before you should know that they are not slimy, they don't bite, they are easy to store and easy to feed from about any feeder. We include instructions with each shipment. We encourage those who haven't tried mealworms to experience the joy and excitement of your birds devouring these delectable morsels.

Mealworms are used as a supplemental food and should only be offered once or twice a day unless poor weather conditions dictate more frequent feeding. For example, a hundred or so worms offered morning and evening would be adequate for a pair of bluebirds with a box of nestlings.
