Trying to get all the info out about where to order online and how they have been reviewed, also where they are located.

Post where you order from.
I'll look into where they are located.

Ghann's Cricket Farm= www.ghann.com. The choices listed above are also good. The reason I like Ghann's is because of the extra effort they make to keep their customers informed and involved. When the cricket virus struck last year, they did not hold anything back from us. They let us know that their crickets were ill and that they were switching to a new breed. They even provided photos of the new breed as well as a potentially dangerous imposter that some farms were selling illegally.

Fun fact: they were featured on an episode of the TV show Dirty Jobs. It's cool because to me that further proves the point that they have nothing to hide.

I've only ordered from Ghann and GeorgiaCricket. Both were decently priced, imo. My order from Ghann was around $40-$50 for 200 or so crickets, 250 mealies, and some phoenix worms. GeorgiaCrickets was $45 for 2 thousand mealies. They put them in burlap looking sacks, I don't know if that's the norm for large mealworm shipments. Both suppliers had very little die offs in my orders.

Below are my reviews keep in mind that I haven't ordered from any of these places in over 2 years though

http://www.flukerfarms.com/ Port Allen, La.
(ordered 10K Large superworms each box was to contain 1000 but only average 850 per box. Contacted customer support but never got a reply)

http://www.armstrongcrickets.com/ Glenville, GA
(ordered 5K large superworms. They messed up and only sent 4 boxes customer service was polite and over nighted the missing box the following day)

http://www.timberlinefisheries.com/ Marion, IL
(ordered 8K Large superworms. Great customer service and got about a 15% over count however they do have some of the higher prices on their feeders online)

http://www.nyworms.com/ NY
(The very first place I purchased online nearly 4 years ago)

http://www.rainbowmealworms.net Comton, CA
(Ordered a few 100k orders of large mealworms shipped overnight. Did experience a fairly large die off each time. Weather wasn't an issue cause they were shipped when the temperatures where in the low 70's. What I think was the issue is they keep a large supply of mealworms refrigerated. So im guessing I got a batch or two that might have been in there for a bit to long. But thats just my guess since i've never had an issue with mealworms before)
