i used to hav a salamander. one thing you could do is get some crickets. you can probably get them at a local pet store and they're real cheap

It will happily eat crickets, earthworms, beetle and moth grubs, maggots (undyed) and anything else horrid

My sals fav food is small slugs they just go crazy for them,they also eat earth worms,small crix,small locusts although not many of mine will eat meal worms

It's also important to note that spotted salamanders (most salamanders actually) are temperate creatures and do best at temperatures below or 70F. Also these salamanders are fossorial and do well with a deep substrate so that they can burrow.
