Are the mealworms, regular sized mealworms, or are they the super mealworms?
I never use the super mealworms, because I myself have had them bite me the first time I had ever used them way back. The normal sized mealworms, you don't have problems with.
If the supers bite you, imagine what it might feel like to your gecko. Just a thought.
