Nature's Wild Bird Food's dried roasted waxworm product is an excellent food source for your wild birds. This high quality, natural food product is a special treat that birds love and our preservative-free and additive-free dried waxworms will help keep your birds healthy as well. Great care has been taken in raising these dried roasted waxworms to ensure an excellent, high quality nutritional and dietetic food source for your birds. Waxworms are the larval stage of the Greater Wax Moth (Galleria mellonella). Waxworms are large, soft and easily digested by wild birds. Our beetles are on a strict diet of fresh cereal and vegetables, so they are a safe food source for your bluebirds and other birds as well. High levels of protein, fat, and moisture make our roasted waxworms an excellent, juicy food for many birds, including all members of the thrush family as well as dunnocks and blackcaps. These juicy morsels will prove very popular. Dried roasted waxworms are also enjoyed by bluebirds as well as cardinals, orioles, robins, thrushes, waxwings, blue jays, tanagers, titmice, warblers, kinglets, and many other insect-eating birds as well. Dried waxworms do not need refrigeration and offer an even higher protein and energy content than live waxworms. Waxworms can be offered from just about any bird feeder and will fit perfectly into our Popoutz seed and mealworm feeders. Most birds will eat waxworms right from a dish on the ground. Dried roasted waxworms also work well with tray feeders, platform bird feeders, and even our Supper Dome Feeder! Many non-seed-eating songbirds are declining in number because of the loss of breeding habitats and lack of food. By offering dried roasted waxworms to insect-eating birds, you will help to ensure their survival in the wild. Dried waxworms have more protein than live waxworms and are cheaper, especially now with our newly discounted prices and FREE SHIPPING INCLUDED!!

Here's a Hot Tip from your friends at Nature's Wild Bird Food!! Are you frustrated with not being able to get your supplies of live waxworms? Add a dash of cold press extra virgin olive oil to dried waxworms for re-hydration and they look "life like!" Also, the cold press olive oil is tasteless, has lots of anti-oxidants, plus amino acids, and never goes rancid. But more important, cold press extra virgin olive oil is expelled (unlike Canola oil) from the host organism. NOTE: Please allow time for the birds to adjust - it might take a day or two. “The Early Bird Gets the Worm!”
All the benefits of LIVE FOOD, but without the hassles of feeding live food. Roasted waxworms are a much loved treat of blue birds, cardinals, orioles, robins, thrushes, waxwings, blue jays, tanagers, etc.
