Flockin' 5lbs Dried Mealworms are a high-protein, all-natural insect food that attracts and fuels wild birds like bluebirds, robins, wrens, and woodpeckers year-round.

These premium dried mealworms deliver concentrated insect protein in a convenient 5-pound bag for backyard feeders. Carefully dehydrated and free of fillers or preservatives, they offer an easy, shelf-stable option for feeding during nesting, molting, migration, and cold weather. Use them in tray or platform feeders, scattered on the ground, or as a supplemental treat to encourage visitation and support active birds without messy refrigeration.

How do Flockin' mealworms help backyard birds during nesting season?

High protein content supports adult birds and growing nestlings, providing energy and building blocks needed for feather and muscle development. Offering mealworms near nest boxes or feeding stations increases the chances parents will find reliable food close to the nest.

• Over 50% protein to support nestling growth and adult stamina
• Small insect pieces easily carried by parent birds
• Ideal for tray feeders and platform presentation near nesting sites

What’s the best way to serve these dried mealworms?

Serve dry in an open tray, platform feeder, or shallow dish; birds readily pick them up from flat surfaces. You can also rehydrate briefly with warm water to soften the mealworms if your local species prefers moister food.

• Use tray or platform feeders for easy access and visibility
• Scatter on the ground for ground-feeding species like robins
• Rehydrate by adding a small amount of warm water before serving, if desired

Which bird species are most likely to eat Flockin' dried mealworms?

Many common backyard birds favor mealworms, especially insectivores and omnivores that naturally hunt bugs. Mealworms are particularly effective at attracting bluebirds, wrens, chickadees, and woodpeckers, as well as seasonal visitors seeking concentrated energy.

• Bluebirds and robins respond well to platform and ground presentations
• Wrens and chickadees take mealworms directly from trays
• Woodpeckers will visit nearby suet or platform feeders offering insects

How should I store and handle the 5-pound bag?

Keep the bag sealed and stored in a cool, dry place to preserve texture and freshness. Because these are fully dried, they remain shelf-stable, but proper storage prevents moisture and pests from affecting the product.

• Reseal bag after each use or transfer to an airtight container
• Store off the ground in a cool, dry pantry or garage
• Check periodically for signs of moisture; discard if damp
