Are you sure the bug was yours?
Paint the plastic one. They sell plastic paint. Get the colors from your kitchen. See painted garbage cans.
Cover it with a matching material or contact paper.
I portion it out for a week or two at a time in 1 1/2 cup portions. I set those on the pantry shelf and makes meal time super easy.
When we had two dogs, we used a rubbermaid bin and never had issues.
I don't know why they don't make zipper bags on certain packages. My bird food has one but that too has a bad zipper so it goes into an air tight container.
Btw I do not throw the bag away until it's gone.
If you don't want to fold and save the bag, at least cut off the contact and upc.
I once opened a bag of bird food with worms, they took right back. Another had a whole almond in shell. That got me 3 company coupons for $10 off each bag. Being they are $20 each, it's been nice. They set me up till the new year.
you can use double sided tape to put a clear pocket on the side of the container and just slide it in and easy to change out when adding a new batch. Never mix new and old food. Finish then refill. You don't want to contaminate the older batch if something is amiss. 4951
