Nothing complicated about it for daily checks

We opened the included setup of mealworm storage tray during a beginner's first setup. The first reaction to this mealworm storage tray was noticeably stronger than expected after mismatched tubs became inconvenient. That amount suited how often the mealworm storage tray is used during a beginner's first setup, and the remainder stored without trouble. The mealworm storage tray has already been used again since during a beginner's first setup.

Made the routine easier

The mealworm storage tray had its first proper test beside the existing feeder-insect trays. The first reaction to this mealworm storage tray was noticeably stronger than expected during the first full cleaning. For this included setup, washable ventilated storage felt accurate, and the colony setup worked as intended. Using the mealworm storage tray beside the existing feeder-insect trays never felt like extra work.

Small addition, smoother routine

A quick glance now shows where the colony needs moisture or additional feed. The dedicated tray added capacity without rebuilding the existing setup.

Simple upgrade, big difference

A quick glance now shows where the colony needs moisture or additional feed. That has reduced unnecessary handling and made the routine faster. The dedicated tray added capacity without rebuilding the existing setup. It solved the small problem we bought it for.

The missing piece for our setup

Adding this mealworm storage tray created breathing room as the colony grew. It integrates neatly with the existing mealworm area and keeps feeder insects contained. Another order would make sense when this runs out.

Game changer!

I've been buying live and dry mealworms for years. In the past, I actually tried to breed my own mealworms in plastic trays, but I always had issues with humidity and smell, so I stopped growing my own. I've been waiting so long for a product like this! It is a neat little product, and I am excited to grow my own mealworms. One person found this helpful

Great container that fits a good 1,000+ mealworms and looks much more neater than the original clear plastic tubs people may use. My only issue is I put half an apple in there for they're moisture and returned 2 days later to take out anything left before mold may come around and I returned to find the worms found they're way to the filter and started eating it 😆 and there's no where I can buy more filters separately which is why I rate 4 stars, but other than that, neat little storage.
