Hi Josh,
I've only tried it a few times but it served its purpose well which was to attract bluebirds. I just put some on the rocks in my sister's backyard and they flew in, landed on some nice perches on the way in and out and fed on the worms.

YES!
Many birds will eat mealworms.
I usually stuff them right inside a hole in one of my snags.
I had nesting Carolina Wrens on my front porch and every afternoon I would put out mealworms for them -- they got to expect it. Flycatchers love them too. Catbords and Bluebirds are great with mealworms too!
Bluebirds love mealworms!
You can have fun with mealworm feeders -- if you put a snag near the feeder you can get the birds landing on their way to and from...
You can put mealworms inside snags, props, old boots, etc.
