Hello everyone,
I'm getting a bit paranoid about this because I can't figure out why it keeps happening.
It started with my bottles of fish food. I don't have many fish so one small bottle lasts a super long time UNTIL I find tiny tiny bugs in it and I bin it. When I say tiny, they look like food dust and I only notice them if I stare my eyeballs out of my head at them and see them moving really slowly. This has happened twice now and I'm guessing they're some sort of mites that just appear, like when you have really old books and see something crawling on it...
I have two small containers for seeds and pellets so I reduce how many times I open the original bags. I found the tiny bugs in these containers too so in my panic I scalded them with hot water, washed with soap and sprayed with F10.
Has anyone experienced this before? If yes, how do you prevent them? Is it a cleanliness issue or something to do with the age of the item? I may just store all my pet food products in the fridge now!
