Dried Mealworms
Dried Mealworms offer a similar amount of fat and protein as Live Mealworms, but without the wriggle. We advise that dried mealworms are soaked in water before being fed - especially during the breeding season
Our Dried Mealworms are a great source of protein and have been a real hit since we first introduced them. Dried mealworms have a similar level of fat and protein as the live equivalent.

Vine House dried meal-worms are Delicious every one loves them, they are eaten up as fast as I put them out . My Bantums like them too as a tasty snack.

The starlings and blackbirds especially love them and arrive the minute they are put out

Always satisfied with goods from Vine House and the birds enjoy them
06/04/2021Sue Taylor
Very good. A friend recommended that I soak them for a couple of hours. My friendly robin loves them and with no prompting eats them from my hand which is an absolute joy. The downside is he now only seems to want them above all the other mixture of seeds suet pellets cheese apple and dried fruit + the skin and flesh of melons!

Herring Gulls love them, no one else gets a look in

Good and prompt service especially as it is free. Mealworms are just like ones we have always bought from our local garden centre but as we are in our eighties now it is much easier to order online with you. And we are happy to support you as you support the wildlife trust Kind regards June

Excellent pain free transaction. A pleasure to do business with you.
25/03/2021Ms Rosemary atkins
Personally, I don't mind feeding live or dried mealworms but the latter are more convenient for me. I'm sure my birds would prefer live ones as they are like the insect food they would be used to, but they are enthusiastic about dried ones too.
24/03/2021Susan Watson
All the bird food I buy from you is really good and I’m pleased with it. The delivery is efficient and I’m always informed about delivery times.

Our first time purchasing Dried Mealworms. Wanting to provide the best we can for the birds who visit our garden we were delighted with the product, and will continue to buy more.

These Mealworms are very popular with all my birds. They are packed up very well and are delivered very promptly, as long of course, that I don't order on a Friday or Saturday. In which case they take a few days as I believe Vinehouse subcontract them with somebody else. But I am very satisfied with what I get.

They are easy to handle and mix with other feed. In the breeding season they can be soaked before use so that they can be safely fed to hatchlings by parents.
