All our maggots are harvested, cooled and potted on the day of dispatch.
1/2 Pints & 1 Pints
Maggots will arrive in a special pouch (pictured) which can be placed straight in the fridge until required. Please squeeze the air out of the pouch and give the maggots a good shake before placing in the fridge. Repeat this every 2-3 days. Alternatively transfer straight into a maggot bait tub and store as normal.
1/2 Gallons
Please open bag upon arrival and pour into a large bait tub or tray. The maggots are put to sleep before being sent out, and will still be asleep when they arrive with you. Leave them for a few hours and they should start to become active. Once they are all wiggling, place in a fridge at 1-2 degrees centigrade until required.
Your maggots will arrive fresh with good feed sacks and will keep for at least 2 weeks providing they are kept chilled. Ideal chilling temperatures are 1-2 degrees centigrade.
