How to keep bugs out???!!!

[Chicken Chicken Love]

So, I have found so many bugs and cockroaches in my feed for my chickens, and my feed bag is closed up and the feed bag is in a container! How do you guys keep bugs out of your feed bag, any help and/or suggestions would be appreciated!

move never had bugs in my feed.We have a large lidded metal milk churn that we use for feed, there’s a plastic jug in it and it’s kept in the woodshed where it’s quite cool

Should say ‘we’ve rather than ‘move’ Shame about predict text!

I’ve been having some problems with that too! Try this website, it’s really helpful!

We use a container just like this stored inside an outdoor shed and have not had a problem with insects yet.

I put my 50lb bag of feed in a covered aluminum garbage can to protect from insects/mice. Has worked perfectly so far.
