Wax Worm Moths??????

[lepsforlife2009]

Hi,
I was just wondering.....a wax worm moth is stuck in my gecko tank. He keeps trying to chase it. He's getting kinda pissed cuz everytime he goes to bite it flies. Anyway, my question is, are they safe to eat or should I get it out of there.
THanks

Shouldn't be not safe, its not been exposed to any pestisides, but I would remove it anyway just because if it escapes it will annoy you as well. haha

Well I was just thinking about the urban stories with moths. Just wasn't sure, but thanks for the advice, yeah it'll probably annoy me if it gets out....LOL

Are they as good as the mealie-eating-stomachs stories? :laugh:

I wouldn't worry much about anything nonpoisonous that doesn't have jaws. :tongue3:

Wax moths are perfectly safe, I raise them up for frog food.
