I Brought 50 Wax Worms Home to See What They Turn Into Wax worms start out as tiny eggs that hatch into creamy white larvae…this is the stage where they do most of their eating and growing. They love snacking on beeswax, honey, and pollen inside beehives (and scientists even discovered they can nibble on plastic, too!). After they’ve eaten enough, they shed their skin and turn into a pupa… until finally they transform into a moth! Who’s excited to witness the life cycle of a wax worm?! | Growith
