    Be careful when dusting earth worms. Don't just stick the whole worm in powder or it will collect too much dust due to their sticking coating.

    You can't overdose the frogs with vitamin dust, don't worry.

    There actually IS A RISK of overdose. Without looking at scientific reasoning, just think about this...would you take 15 multivitamins in one day when the recommended dose is 1? Probably not.

    Although lethal levels are very high of some vitamins and minerals, it is still possible. Over supplementing your frog can be just as harmful as under-supplementation.

    And to dust worms, I just place a small dose on a feeding dish and rub the worms in it. This allows me to control the amount of powder I want to use rather than just sticking the whole thing in powder and collecting too much.
