Mealworm farmers often ask one important question:“Should I sell dried mealworms or live mealworms for better profit?”Both products have strong demand in Pakistan, but each one targets different buyers and offers different profit margins. Dried mealworms sell for a higher price, while live mealworms have a strong and steady market among reptile and fish owners.

Mealworm farming has gained serious momentum in Pakistan in the last few years. Rising poultry feed prices, expensive fish feed, and increasing awareness of sustainable insect protein have pushed mealworms into high demand across multiple industries. Whether you sell dried mealworms, live worms, starter colonies, or frass fertilizer, the demand is consistently strong and growing.
