Parasites: Which feeders are LESS likely to carry them?

[morphmom]

Ok, I'm in Canada, so no dubia's for me
What are the chances of parasites in

Butterworms?
Hornworms?
Silkworms?
Superworms?

I refuse to feed my Myah crickets so I really need some help!

well of all the worms you just mentioned supers and silkies are the only worms that can be used as an everyday feeder. Supers I don't think are eh, healthy enough for an every day feeder so I'd definitely mix it up. Silks are great though, so I'd recommend those or pheonix worms with horm worms throughout the week as well, just not as the primary feeder.
