[QUOTE="rod, post: 1526608, member: 5382"] UPS does not guarantee plants/ flowers /perishables or live insects/bait or animals. The chances of anything not being frozen during shipment in the northern third of the US is about slim and none. People from the south like to ship oranges, pears, apples and grapefruit to their friends up north--especially at Christmas time. Normally that kind of stuff could be used as croquet balls by the time it gets here. I used to tell ticked off customers that 'hell--UPS don't even keep their drivers warm up in the cab of the trucks--they sure as hell aren't going to spring for a heater in the cargo section". If your shipment is shipped so it sits outside over the weekend in a trailer (and it will because the trailers don't go in the buildings) then you chance are 100% of it being frozen [/QUOTE]
