    Default Bee moth or wax worm

    I think with either name, you are talking about the same creature. Here is a good website that talks about wax worms. http://www.aqualandpetsplus.com/Live...ax%20Worms.htm

    Default They are the same thing

    The wax worm is the larva (caterpillar) of the bee moth. The proper name is the Galleria mellonella.

    Maggots are the larvae of flies.
