Store them between 50 and 60° - not as cold as a refrigerator but not as warm as room temperature. This will stop them from spinning cocoons and pupating.
It's difficult to find a storage area that temperature, common places are wine coolers, wine storage basements, and in your fridge the butter storage area in the door.
Waxworms don't need food, they are in the final stage of their larval form and use their own energy stores for survival. They will grow smaller rather than larger at room temperature and rapidly pupate because of this.

When sold as fishing bait, some stores freeze them for a very short period of time. This damages the spinners and hence they are unable to spin cocoons while on the shelf.
