Six wax worms is a bit OTT. Even as adults i wouldent recommend more than 3 to any animals.

Yes waxworms can climb.. They can walk up smooth surfaces.
I have a huge sweet jar of waxies which are being fed on weetabix and honey mix. They're only tiny at the mo so are ideal for fattening up a reluctant little feeder.

I tried breeding waxies once. Moths laid the eggs, so far so good, waxies hatched and were happily growing. However, they do climb and they are incredibly small to start with so the question is how do you prevent them from getting out of the tub/jar without causing a build up of humidity which leads to bacterial growth on the fod and kills them all?

Mine have a piece of cloth, not thickly woven held over the top with an elastic band.. Small ones may still get through so you stand the jar/tub in a bowl of water.. any escapees drown rather than roam your house.
