Bin Weevils Magazine

Bin Weevils Magazine was a monthly content based magazine that is available in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and contains content about Bin Weevils and other information. It was published by Egmont from 2012 - 2014, and by Kennedy Publishing from 2014 - 2015. The magazine ran for over 34 issues, and was inspired by the adventures of the online world.

The magazine consisted of trivia, puzzles, challenges, stories, comics, artwork, gossip and products involving around Bin Weevils. The magazine costed £2.99 in the United Kingdom. The magazine also included a wide range of virtual goods to unlock online. This included secret codes for either nest or garden items along with codes for Dosh and Mulch to enter at the Mystery Code Machine outside Lab's Lab. Free goodies such as posters, stickers, items, trading cards, sweets and other Bin Weevils products were issued every month. Each months, readers could unlock a bonus secret gift on the Bin Weevils Magazine website.

From 2011 - 2013, and briefly from 2014 - 2015 three celebs featured throughout each issue. They were Mudd, Monty and Glamm. They were the Bin Weevils Magazine mascots. Monty was the chief editor and was a cousin of Scribbles. Glamm featured the best nest interiors every month along with nest decorating tips. Mudd featured the best gardeners every month along with gardening tips. Scribbles took ownership of the Bin Weevils Magazine from October 2013, although Monty, Mudd and Glamm later returned. Weevils who had their art, stories, nests and gardens featured would receive a rare trophy along with various online rewards in every issue.

Every issue featured exclusive behind the scenes news, such as upcoming content and events. Bin Weevils Magazine readers received major news first. Every issue also included a new back story, comic strips and puzzles. Inside knowledge of features, characters, locations and SWS missions were also included greatly in each issue.

Player created nests and gardens were featured every month, along with the popular visits from Glamm and Mudd to the Bin at Tycoon Island. Players would invite Glamm and Mudd to their nest and garden for an inspection. Those featured in the Bin Weevils Magazine would receive an exclusive rare Glamm and Mudd trophy. They could display this trophy in their nest and garden.

From 2014, Monty, Glamm and Mudd were no longer the mascots for the Bin Weevils Magazine. Egmont stopped publishing for Bin Weevils, thus Kennedy Publishing had no right to use those characters. Scribbles took ownership of the Bin Weevils Magazine and became the main editor. 

The Nest Inspector and Garden Inspector took ownership of the monthly nest and garden features - two exclusive nest and garden trophies for the Bin Weevils Magazine were introduced; the Nest Inspector Trophy and Garden Inspector trophy. One for nests and one for gardens.

Secret codes included Mulch, Dosh and virtual goods (nest and garden items). Additional item codes were also added every month through puzzles and stories. Bin Tycoon Membership was sometimes included in some issues. Contests and competitions were also held. Trivia for everything Bin Weevils was included in each issue; including top tips on minigames, SWS missions, SWS case files, pets and other online activities. The Magazine ended in March 2015 after a successful run.
