Some things are "Just Not Right". Storing bugs in the fridge with your food is high on this list. Indeed, a great many things related to bugs are high on this list...
My refrigerator, but still only hypothetically. (tirinian thinks that the answer is Just Not Right, so it'll probably stay hypothetical).
To explain the premise more: There are aphids on the rosebushes outside. One can buy ladybugs at Pemberton Farms. However, it would be silly to dump several hundred ladybugs on one eight-inch rosebush, all at the same time. If you leave the ladybugs in the jar at room temperature, they run around and get bored and hungry. If you put them in the fridge, they hibernate for the winter until you need them. (Similar things are done with mealworms for those whose pets eat them.)

I didn't notice that this was in some way different than normal behavior.
The madness, it is permanent.
The bugs, they will stay fresh.

Oh, and "in a jar" definitely changed my mental image. Not quite as "just not right", but I still wouldn't want them in *my* fridge.

Here I was aiming for confectionary...
