Product information “Dried mealworms – Natural insect food for ornamental fish, ornamental birds, turtles and hedgehogs”
SUSTAINABLE FEED
Mealworms are a sustainable feed with a great future. They contain high quality protein that is very digestible for most animals. Mealworms are fed with plant and fruit residues. This makes it possible to produce these insects in a particularly resource-conserving and climate-friendly way. They are therefore an excellent alternative to less sustainable protein sources such as fishmeal and soya.
FREEZE-DRIED AND FILTERED
Thanks to gentle and precise freeze-drying, i.e. drying at a low temperature, many valuable ingredients such as omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins are preserved. In addition, the mealworms are intensively filtered from feed residues and substrate, so that a final product with high purity is achieved. Thanks to their low density, the dried larvae are an ideal floating food for many fish species and aquatic turtles.
TASTY MORSELS WITH HIGH ENERGY CONTENT
Biomass from mealworms should not be missing in animal nutrition. They are particularly rich in protein and unsaturated fatty acids. With more than 500 kcal per 100g and a high fat content, dried mealworms are a sustainable energy supplier. Small amounts are already enough to satiate your animals. This natural food is a welcome change in the diet of most ornamental fish and turtles.
