Can superworms carry any parasites?

[NBD3]

Can they? I'm worried because I'm buying superworms at a local pet store and I dont trust the store. Can they carry anything that may kill or damage my T?

pretty much any living thing can, whether it be parasites or something toxic in gut.

So in short my T is in danger?

Suppliers will take every precaution they can to ensure that they are not harmful.

Why buy if you don’t trust them?

It's highly unlikely, but I wouldn't say impossible.

Usually when you get superworms or mealworms from the stores, unless they farmed them themselves, it is Timberline brand or something similar which are fine to use. If they farmed them themselves then just go get some superworms from a chain pet store and it'll be fine. Done this for years. Never had a superworm problem.
