Superworms are a great worms.  They do have specific requirements like temperature, feeding and separation of individual worms before they will pupate.

One of the most labor intensive jobs on our superworm farm is to pull the larva and beetles from the seperators.

Not only does it take a lot of time, but it is a disgusting and smelly job at times.  If you have never smelled a dead and rotting superworm, you are lucky.  It is the kind of smell that gets into your nose and skin and stays there no matter what you do to try to get rid of it.

I don’t have  solution for you on the smell except to tell you to ensure that the pupating worms have plenty of air flow so that if they die they don’t rot.

The point of this post is to show you a large amount of superworms larva.  We place the larva in pans and incubate them at an even temperature and humidity so that we get perfectly formed superworm beetles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The video below is of thousands of super worm larva.  I thought it would make a cool video to show you what that looks like.
