Many owners buy high-quality granulated feed for their animals. It is easy to use and contains substances necessary for the health of the pet.

How to store this food correctly? Let's look into this in more detail.

It is important to store pelleted feed in a location that is not exposed to direct sunlight or moisture.

You also need to use airtight packaging. If you don't have one, pour the food into a jar with a lid or container. Otherwise, all the smell will disappear, and your pet won't want to touch such food.

If you leave the food without a lid, there is a risk that mice and rats, which carry infections, will get in.

The optimal temperature for storing feed is from 10 to 20 degrees Celsius. It is better to avoid high temperatures, otherwise the feed will lose its useful substances.

Storing the food in the refrigerator is not recommended due to condensation. This can lead to mold on the pellets.
