Bean Weevils
PRODUCT COMING SOON...
Supplied in pre-packs and cultures, the Swell Livefood Bean Weevils are ideal for small lizards, amphibians and invertebrates. If purchasing a culture, your Bean Weevils will require hydration when fully emerged. After 24-48 hours, we recommend placing a jelly pot inside the culture for hydration purposes. To maintain your insects for longer, you can always introduce them to a diet of fruit and vegetables, along with various insect foods available at Swell Reptiles. Insects grow to approximately 2-5mm.
We offer a lowest price guarantee on the freshest livefood available to purchase. Orders placed before 12PM Monday-Thursday will be sent over to our UK based breeder, who will then organise your purchase to be safely packed and sent out. All our livefood is sent in tubs made from 100% recycled material.
Remember livefood can be affected by code weather. Please see our, 'Tips when receiving live reptile food during cold weather' guide for more information.

The Bean Weevil (Callosobruchus Maculatus) is a small beetle, feeding primarily on dried beans along with dried peas and pulses. The larvae of the Bean Weevil are able to feed from the inside of a bean until it pupates, making itself a small chamber inside the bean. It will then emerge as an adult beetle, growing to only a few millimetres long.
We recommend feeding Bean Weevils to baby frogs, toads, spiders and praying mantis.
