The Grub Mealworms - Perth WA

08/04/2024

It’s been awhile since I posted and I hoped that it would be with good news that I would be posting this time. But I’m sorry to say it is not. We have been plagued with massive beetle die off for the last 9 months. Even with adding new breeding lines we haven’t been able to boost our production back to where we wanted it to be. So going forward we will be halting all Mealworm sales and purely crossing our fingers that one day we will get back to having stock levels worth selling.

In the MEANTIME!! Our sister site, West Coast Mealworms, has a beautiful new product thanks to all of those lovely mealworms you’ve enjoyed in the past. The only byproduct of mealworms is their p**p, called Frass in the insect world. Frass is an incredible fully organic fertiliser. We’ve been selectively field testing it to a few customers and family and by way of family a bunch of avid gardeners down in Denmark and we’ve had fantastic feedback about its effectiveness.

So if you’ve got a garden of any sort (even hydroponic!) and would like to continue to support us our 7kg Frass bags will be going on sale during the easter holidays.

Many thanks for your ongoing support.

Kind Regards
Jamie

IMPORTANT NOTICE……..
Good Morning everyone, as most of you know it’s been a tough winter and I’m still recovering from losing much of my breeding stock. The addition of The Grub Mealworms to the business has been phenomenal, and with that I will be forging forward.
However, with the coming of the school holidays and the necessary kid minding duties and holiday trips that involves, I have decided to shut the shop until school goes back.
This will allow me to focus all my attention on developing the breeding stock base I need to get the farm growing and up to the yield levels I need to service all my loyal customers.
I know this isn’t ideal but in the coming months we will be stronger and better placed to help you all.
If you have any questions please drop me a line.
Jamie
