CATDOLL : CATDOLL: A lot of my mealworms died. They started to turn over and moved slowly. They didn't eat anything, their bodies were soft and their stomachs felt empty. I would like some advice from breeding experts.

This air temperature and humidity are still acceptable. Reaching this level in this season shows that you are really careful in management. But you did not focus on controlling the humidity of the feed, or you put in too much green feed. Bacteria multiply under high temperature and humidity, causing insects to be infected with soft rot. Are there not many black insects now? Stop feeding green feed immediately, and feed one spoonful of poultry oxytetracycline mixed in the feed for every 2 kilograms of insects (the feed is a daily amount, and it is fed once a day). In the process, keep picking out the black insects until no diseased insects are found for three consecutive days.

2. What kind of super mealworm can turn into a pupa?

Yellow mealworms usually need to wait until they are 6-8 years old to pupate. Keep the temperature and humidity at 25 and 60 degrees.

3. Why do mealworms always die during the breeding process?

Can you send me a picture? Most of the reasons why mealworms die are due to excessive humidity, too much moisture in the feed, poor air circulation, etc. If you have any questions, you can go online to consult the Pengxiang Mealworm Breeding Professional Cooperative in Xinfeng County, Guangdong.
