Initial shipment had temperature issue — resolved professionally
Our first 15 kg order arrived with higher-than-expected mortality, likely due to a temperature excursion during the final leg of transit to Dubai. I contacted support immediately and the team responded within 4 hours, issued a partial replacement shipment, and worked with us to adjust packaging insulation for the Gulf climate. The second delivery was excellent — larvae were vigorous, 50–58 mm, and feeding response from our monitor lizard stock was strong. The resolution process was handled professionally and restored our confidence. We've since placed a second order.
