If you’re a pet owner, then you know that storing dog food can be a hassle. But with these six simple tips, you can safely store your dog food at home and avoid any frustration.
Tip number one: always check the expiration date on the dog food packaging. If it’s expired, then don’t bother trying to store it – just toss it out.
Tip number two: make sure that the dog food is in a moisture-free environment. This means keeping it away from humidity and moisture in general.
Tip number three: invest in some airtight storage containers. This will help keep the dog food fresh and prevent any pests from invading your stockpile.
Tip number four: place the airtight containers in a cool, dry place. A pantry or cupboard is usually the best spot.
Tip number five: if you’re storing dry dog food, be sure to keep it in an airtight container as well. Again, this will help extend its shelf life.
Tip number six: once the dog food is opened, be sure to use it within a few weeks. After that, it’s best to just toss it out.
Following these simple tips should help you store your dog food properly and keep it fresh for longer.
