I want to ship mealworms to my secret santa, but:

1) How do I ship mealies without killing them all
2) My peron doesn't live in the USA how does shipping mealies to them work?!?!?!?!

I'm lost guys.....if anyone can help me on where I need to ship the worms from and how the post office works( the $ and rules for shipping live food)that would help me ALOT because I've never shipped anything before......


Thanks for the help ahead of time ^__^

Well, you could always find somewhere that sells them in their area, and then that way its not going out of their country. Just make the billing address yours and the shipping address theirs.

yeah but i dont have money to pay for extra worms i already have 2,000+ at home to use 200 out of

Preparing the worms for shipping is not difficult: get a cloth drawstring bag and put a few pieces of newspaper in, then add the worms (no food necessary). Put it in a box with crushed newspaper so it doesn't bounce around. Write on the box what it is. This is how my mealworms get shipped to me when I have ordered them. I guess you could also put them in a deli cup, the type they sell mealworms in, and put that in a box.

THe hard part is finding out if you're allowed to ship these to the country you need to ship them to. You will have to find out what the regulations are and I don't know how to do that.

Anyone?
