 Silkworm keeping help

I just got silkworms for my buddy and i had them all set up in a cardboard box with some mulberry leaves off the tree in my front yard. I put them in the box and left them to crawl out of their containers. After i came home from work, the silkworms looked like they had just crawled out of their containers and died. They looked shriveled so i thought it was the heat since i do live in Arizona. But they came with a heating pack. I just got soo confused and wondered if anyone could help me out with this.

Thanks.

keep your silkworms at room temperature and try not to touch them to much because they get bacteria easily. Make sure they have fresh maulberry leaves every day and clean their poop out every 3 to 4 days.
