Shipping Methods
We offer USPS Priority Mail as our standard shipping service for all living items and USPS Ground Advantage for orders containing only non-living items. Since silkworms and fruit flies are a perishable good, we do not offer USPS standard parcel post because shipment may take too long. Live delivery is guaranteed for priority mail under most circumstances. However, if the priority mail shipment takes longer than three days to reach you, the live guarantee is downgraded as follows: We will reship free of product charge, but ask that you pay the reshipping charge. Please see our Live Guarantee page for details.
USPS Priority Mail: Priority Mail generally offers 2-3 day service to most domestic destinations and one day delivery to some locations. However, neither we nor the USPS guarantees a 3 day delivery time, so it may take longer. Includes delivery to every address in the United States—including PO Boxes and military addresses.
USPS Ground Advantage: This shipping service is an affordable and reliable way to send packages inside the U.S. Packages generally arrive within 2-5 business days from the day of shipping.
If you need a 1-2 day guaranteed delivery time, please contact us regarding shipment via USPS Express Mail. We will then give you a quote for your order and await your response.
