The Bug Company is a family-owned animal nutrition company with its roots in live foods. In fact, the Vadis family has been in the animal food business since 1947. |
|||
| What’s changed is who’s eating our food and where it’s sold. From simple beginnings selling bait to Minnesota fishermen, The Bug Company has evolved and expanded significantly. We’re an award-winning company that raises and packages live insects and manufactures prepared reptile foods and supplements. Our products are distributed throughout the United States and Canada to pet and birding/nature product retailers large and small. |
||||
| Our goal is to be the leader in reptile and bird nutrition innovations, addressing health, flavor and freshness details as well as packaging and retail merchandising approaches other companies haven’t even begun to consider. |

In 2002, after extensive research and testing, The Bug Company launched BugBox!™ crickets, our first industry-changing product. BugBox! crickets are a pre-packed system that creates a more convenient, neat and cost-effective way to buy and sell feeder crickets. BugBox! packages are made of breathable, earth-friendly fiberboard that eliminate the moisture found in plastic containers. |
|||
| In 2007, we launched Reptile-Life™ products, an 18-product line of ready-to-eat foods, veggie boosters and supplements designed to be irresistible to reptiles in taste, flavor and texture. Each product is scientifically engineered to deliver the optimal mix of micronutrients and probiotics for reptile health and wellness. Of course, the best test is whether reptiles will actually eat the food, and by all accounts they can’t get enough. |
||||
| Also in 2007, we expanded our market reach to include the birding and nature product industry. Mealworms attract the most spectacular garden birds, and our eye-catching, spinning Live Mealworm Merchandiser helps the product fly out of the store. |
