need help for mealworm

[Zero99]

i would like to ask how many hours to refrigirate the mealworm, coz they pupate fast in my room temp.

You can refrigerate them for weeks. Just take them out for a day every week and let them warm up so they can eat.

If you have a cool room you could also place them there to slow the pupation.

I had to move my mealworms from my room which is 75F, to my closest which is around 60F. That has slowed down the pupation of my mealworms.
