Flockin' Dried Mealworms for Wild Birds, 5 lb Bag — High-Protein Bluebird & Songbird Food

Flockin' 5lbs Dried Mealworms are a 100% natural, high-protein bird food and treat designed to attract and nourish wild birds like bluebirds, robins, wrens, and woodpeckers year-round.

These premium dried mealworms deliver concentrated insect protein—over 50%—with no fillers, additives, or preservatives. Packaged in a convenient 5-pound bag, they work well in tray or platform feeders, on the ground, or mixed into supplemental feeding stations. Because they’re dry and shelf-stable, they’re easy to store and offer a reliable, nutrient-dense option for backyard birding during nesting, molting, migration, and cold months.

How do these mealworms help backyard birds during nesting season?

High protein supports adult birds and growing nestlings when dietary needs are at their peak. Offering dried mealworms at feeders increases available calories and amino acids that are important for healthy feather and muscle development without the mess of live insects.

• Over 50% protein for energy and growth
• Attracts insectivorous species like bluebirds and wrens
• Easy-to-dispense in tray feeders or mixed with other feed
• No preservatives or fillers to dilute nutrition

Can I use these mealworms year-round and how should I offer them?

Yes—dried mealworms are suitable for all seasons because they store well and provide concentrated nutrients during winter, migration, and molting. Offer them on platform or tray feeders, scatter on the ground for ground-feeding species, or combine with other seed mixes for variety.

• Ideal for tray/platform feeders and ground feeding
• Helpful during fall migration and winter food shortages
• Mix sparingly with seed to encourage varied diets
• Keep feeder areas clean and dry to maintain quality

Which bird species are most likely to visit when I use these mealworms?

Dried mealworms are highly attractive to many insect-eating and omnivorous backyard birds. Expect visits from species that readily accept insects as part of their diet, increasing diversity at your feeders and improving observation opportunities.

• Bluebirds, robins, wrens, chickadees, and titmice
• Cardinals and woodpeckers may take mealworms opportunistically
• Ground-feeding species will find scattered mealworms quickly
• Smaller songbirds benefit from the high-protein supplement

How should I store and handle the 5lb bag to keep mealworms fresh?

Because these mealworms are fully dried, storing them in a cool, dry place prolongs shelf life and preserves nutritional value. Reseal the original bag or transfer contents to an airtight container to prevent moisture and pests from compromising the feed.

• Keep in a cool, dry pantry or storage closet
• Use airtight containers to avoid humidity and insects
• Rotate supply to use older product first
• Do not refrigerate; keep dry to maintain texture
