How They Ship The Hornworms are young and approximately 1/2" when they are shipped out, so they will last longer for you. They will grow in transit, and will be larger when you receive them (especially in warm weather). Please check to make sure your temperatures upon arrival will not be above 85F or below 20F as we are unable to do this for you.

How to Store Store the pod upside down, with the food at the top. This way, the Hornworms will climb up to eat, and their waste will fall to the bottom of the container for easy cleanup. Make sure to place them on a wire rack or something similar, so that they receive proper ventilation. Hornworms will grow the fastest when kept in the low 80s F, but can be kept as low as the mid 50s F to slow growth. Hornworms can also be kept in the fridge (at 45F) for 2 days, then removed for one day, to slow growth.
