Mealworms and beetles must be separated to prevent competition for resources and ensure proper growth and development. Mealworms, which are the larval stage of darkling beetles, require specific conditions for optimal feeding and molting, while adult beetles have different dietary and environmental needs. Additionally, separating them helps reduce the risk of predation, as adult beetles may consume the mealworm larvae. This separation is essential for successful breeding and cultivation in controlled environments.
