I have some mealworms that are oven dried, but they are supposed to be for birds. Would they be safe for ants?

I can provide a picture if needed.

As long as they are just mealworms with no additives they are fine for ants. Since they are dried maybe putting a drop or two of water would moisten them and make them more suitable for feeding to ants.


I accidentally froze all my ants

Freeze dried bloodworm soup works well too.
