BioSupplies Superworm Care Sheet
Hardy, active, and always hungry — the ultimate feeder
Meet Your Superworms
Superworms are tough, long-lasting, and loved by reptiles — but they do have a couple of quirks.
Good news:
Get the basics right and they’ll last ages
Step 1: Set Them Up
When they arrive:
Keep them in a well-ventilated container
Leave them in their bran/oat bedding (this is food too)
Store in a dark, dry place
They like it simple — no fancy setup needed
Step 2: Keep Them at Room Temp (IMPORTANT)
This is where most people go wrong
Ideal temp: 20–26°C (room temperature)
Do NOT refrigerate
(unlike mealworms, superworms will die in the fridge)
If you remember one thing:
No fridge!
Step 3: Feed Them
Superworms are always hungry
Feed them:
- Carrot (best option)
- Potato
- Leafy greens
Tip:
Carrot is perfect — food + hydration in one
Step 4: Hydration
They get most of their moisture from food:
Provide fresh veg regularly
Avoid water bowls (they’ll drown and make a mess)
Dry bedding + fresh veg = perfect balance
Step 5: Avoid These Mistakes
Refrigerating them
Too much moisture (causes smell + die-off)
Not enough food (they’ll start to shrink)
Sealed containers (they need airflow)
Quick tip:
If they’re shrinking… they’re hungry
Step 6: Keep It Clean
- Remove old food before it goes mouldy
- Top up bran/oats if needed
- Keep bedding dry
Clean setup = longer-lasting worms
Feeding Time Tips
- Great for reptiles, birds, and chickens
- Feed appropriate size
- Dust with calcium if needed
Bonus:
Superworms are very active — great feeding response!
