Small silkworms, small hornworms, butterworms and pheonix worms would all be good options for staple feeders. Be forewarned though that horns grow REALLY fast! No supers until your dragon is at least 16 inches long, and NO mealworms at all! Wax worms can be offered as an occasional treat (no more than 2 waxies one time per week). Can you keep dubia roaches at your place? They don't climb and can't fly so escaping is not a worry. They also have a body more like a beetle than a roach. And, they are the most nutritious feeder. Here are a couple feeder websites for you to check out:

And, if you decide to look into dubias:
