I live in Texas where the temperatures are very high. Will the product degrade while it is being shipped? Will the hot conditions affect the product?

As far as storage, It says on the package to store in a cool dry place. Sometimes the refrigerator is too cold and moist. Might be better to call the company and ask them.

You need to store it in a cool dry place, not refrigerated. I,m sure it gets hot in the transport but unless you can get it local you would have to order. Fast delivery will hopefully prevent to much deteriorization.

I've refrigerated my Bene-Bac from Day One, when I received it (I live in northern New Mexico and it does get hot here in the summer). Probably that's your best bet--refrigeration.

Hello Valued Customer, We do not ship any of our product cold-packed or refrigerated. You can be assured the ship time is not long enough to require any kind of temperature-controlled shipping. After much testing, the quality is not compromised during shipping times.

I have no knowledge based on scientific background - but logic suggests that if kept in a dry environment and is used within a season or two, it should not deteriorate. Also, it when opened there is no evidence of spoilage, bad smell, dried up discoloration, etc. it should be found. However, you can go on the Scott's web site and ask the question and get an expert answer.

I am not exactly sure how this would hold up in the extreme heat. I used this on the floor board of my pickup truck, and when it's super hot in the summer months, it gets a little bit sticky feeling. This product is like rubber in a can. If you wouldn't put rubber near extreme heat, I wouldn't put this near it either.

Mine wasn't shipped in a thermal envelope, nor with a cold pack. It was shipped from Las Vegas, where the temperature was in the 70s. Imagine how hot it was in the shipping truck! I'm returning it.

I placed my order on Apr 23rd 2013, and I'm still awaiting its arrival. When I ordered it, was 80 degrees out. Now it's over 100 degrees. Did my order get lost somewhere? It sure did not ship within one day. It's been over a month now. Luckily, I have a huge box of your grommets awaiting your shade fabric to go with my sunburn.

well, there is a big chance that the product exposed to sun while shipping or heat thats why the color changed , i cant really tell, but i stopped using it immediately and i bought one from a local pharmacy

It will work correctly after the short shipping period. For long term storage like more than a week it should be below 32 degrees.

I can tell you that my order arrived during a very warm summer period and it was fine. In fact, I just used it to make a body butter and it worked great. I live in Kentucky and we get warm summers.I hope this helps..

Hello. J. Judkins. Thank you for your inquiry. It is completely safe to ship during extreme temperatures. Please make sure to have the tests in a room temperature environment before testing and afterwards keep in store temperatures stated in the instruction manual. Many of our customers live in in-climate weather conditions and are able to use are tests effectively.Best Regards,Easy@Home Customer Service855.822.6999 M-F 9am-5pm CST

I'm concerned about this as well. My order was shipped 6/17/14 and it is now 6/23/14 and the product has not arrived. It is the end of June in Texas... these will absolutely be VERY warm.

Weather is usually at fault when Phoenix Worms arrive in poor condition. When your temps are below 45° or above 85°, we offer 100% live delivery guarantee if we can ship these to your local post office, no matter how hot or cold it is. Just put the words "Hold for Pickup" in one of your shipping address fields or contact us shortly after ordering (we ship fast!), and we will take care of the rest.

I know there are products that maintain the temperature at a safe level, such as small filled pouches with dry ice. I think this is how most shippers will use when sending their products.

Actually, the manufacturer does NOT specifically recommend this. And frankly, THEY do not even ship it refrigerated when they ship it to the stores. That is a fact. It is "suggested", but their products say to "Store in a dry place at 73F (23C) or below. Best if refrigerated". Best, for NOT required. And keeping it refrigerated and then taking it back out would cause it to sweat and possible cause degradation of the capsules. So, you SHOULD store it in the refrigerator AFTER you get it home and keep it there. They have done stability studies and so long as you don't keep it on the car dashboard, you are fine.

I have never used this glue at high temperatures. You may want to call the company.

If they are going to be outside for a while before you take delivery then I would say that temp is to hot. I would say whenever the temp stays steady in the 70's would be a good time to order.

The products do ship from Arizona, however the temperatures do not bother the stability of the peel for the amount of time it is exposed. for long term storage however it should be kept at room temperature.
