small worms in cricket keeper

[spencer118]

i bought crickets 3 days ago and theres worms in the keeper.... again...
i have a small cricket keeper but i usually just buy 30 and thats all she eats in a week and it doesnt get that bad. i give them this calcium cricket feeder and water gel, i have no idea how it got this bad this quick.
can i still feed them to my beardie? or do i have to throw them out...

before i only saw them in the tubes but now im noticing alot of them around the dead crickets. they are probably maggots..

Yeah thats what it looks like, i would collect the living crickets and store them in a small tote or something and sanitize the cricket keeper.
