Brunswick Bugs

Brunswick Bugs I am a small service to provide local reptile and amphibian keepers with a healthier alternative to crickets!

I became interested in reptiles when I found my first turtle many years ago. I accumulated a total of 8 turtles, of all different species. I raised them all to adulthood, and released them back into the wild where they were found. While shopping for turtle supplies one day in a local pet store, I came across a Bearded Dragon. She was beautiful and I immediately wanted to hold her. The pet shop own

er allowed me to bond with her a bit and I fell for Bearded Dragons (affectionately called "Beardies") that very day and knew I wanted one. Flash forward several years later and here I am with three Beardies. I had to have a way to feed all these mouths, so I began my own Dubia Roach colony in 2014. It took a year to get going well enough to feed heavily off of, and even longer to be able to sell my extras off. I am a small, one person business, so I am unable to fulfill enormous orders. I strive for a good personal relationship with all my customers. It is EXTREMELY important to me that everyone is happy with their orders and that their reptiles are happy as well. Thanks for checking Backwoods Bugs out and hopefully we can get to know each other soon! Don't forget to look at my offers for coupon codes for discounts on future purchases!

New price updates for 2025!

09/01/2025

Hi everyone! I wanted to update everyone on some new rules I'm putting into place.
1.) You must order 24-48 hours in advance of when you need your order ready
2.) No orders will be made ready until payment is received
3.) There will be a $5 charge for bugs not picked up by the agreed upon time we decided on
This is to protect business and time, as there have been many instances of no pick-ups, late pick-ups resulting in death of an order, and rush orders that were then delayed in pickup.
Thank you all for your understanding during this time.

This coming Wednesday, June 1st as well as the 3rd, I will be in Wilmington and would like to offer any of my customers the opportunity to place orders for pickup for either of those days. Message me to get your orders in!
AND DON’T FORGET: all orders are 25% off to combat inflation and rising prices!

Hey everyone! I am currently out of containers for the roaches, but have ordered more. They should be here Wednesday. Until then, I am not fulfilling any orders. Normal ordering will commence Wednesday evening. Thanks for your understanding!

Hi guys! I have some exciting news. I am going to start breeding & selling superworms! I will update everyone when I have some sizes ready for purchase.

Hey guys! I just wanted to put something out there because of some recent issues. When you order, please give me 3-4 days to process your order and get it to you. Right now my health isn’t good, I am a tremendous amount of pain daily, and my autoimmune issues are in a flare since I lost my dad 2 months ago (likely due to stress). I appreciate your understanding during this time as I work through these issues and try to get better AND get your orders to you. Thanks!

Hey everyone! I have PLENTY of Dubia available if anyone would like to place an order. If you would, please get your order in before Monday of this coming week, as I am going to open my Etsy shop back up in order to reduce some of my numbers. I’d like my local customers to get first dibs on their pick of bugs before opening up to country-wide. Thanks everyone!

Hey guys. I hope you all are doing well. As some of you know, I haven’t been shipping or doing orders as I lost my dad suddenly on the 7th from an asthma attack that left him brain dead. I will resume normal operations tomorrow for those who would like to get their orders out first thing Monday morning. If you’d like to donate to my dads funeral fund, you may do so at the link below. He didn’t have life insurance and I am really struggling trying to come up with the funds. Thank you all and God bless.

Hey guys! I know that USPS has suspended the shipment of live insects right now, and wanted everyone to know I am willing to make a trip to Wilmington one day this week for a pickup if anyone is in need of Dubias. If you are, let me know and I can get things set up. Thanks guys.
