[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 200622, member: 3872"] If they are regular mealworms, anything EXCEPT superworms, you can keep them in the bran flake they probably came in (they eat the bran flake) in the refrigerator. This will slow their metabolism so they stay worms longer vs transform into beetles. If they are superworms, you need to keep them at room temp and either feed them out, freeze them for slings, give them to other local hobbyists, release them to the world, etc. [/QUOTE]
