I have read that to many wax worms are not good for a leo,but that's all my little guys will eat.Well some crickets from time to time but not often.
I try meal worms but they both just lick them and turn away.I leave a bowl with meal worms in the cage but after 7+ days they will not touch them.
so i get nervous and give them a few 4/5 wax worms cause i think they are hungry.

This might sounds silly to some people but,Is there something i can spray on the meal worms to kinda trick them into eating them?

or any advice would be helpful thanks...

You don't want to hear it but NO more wax worms. Do not give in. If they don't eat for a few weeks or even a month, they have enough fat to keep them going. They are addicted to gecko crack. If you wait a week before putting mealworms in their dish, they might take to them sooner rather than later. When they get hungry enough they will eat. Tough love :)
