they ate hungrily ...
and then some apples ...

      Mealworms are the larvae of darkling beetles. These primitive insects do not have teeth at any point during the life cycle. During the larval stage, mealworms have relatively small mouths; they can feed only on finely ground material.

    I think it is not dead maybe it is turning into a pupa. At pupa stage they dont need food. So they dont need apples or oats.

    If they have enough food, they can stay 3 months for Larva according to their process. After moults 15 times, they will reach Pupa level from Larva (this stage).
