After finding mouse poo in our feed and millet, I bought a metal can for feed and seed treat storage.
One person suggested a plastic liner to help avoid moister condensation and mold.
And to mix in some diatemacious earth (sp) which I have. I have 2 kinds -- one is food grade and contains calcium bentonite, which seems like it could be useful. The other is Natural Guard Crawling Insect Control, which I sometimes sprinkle under the nesting material in the nesting boxes.
So, I'm wondering -- use the metal can with or without a plastic liner.
And add food grade DE to feed or not? I'm thinking the calcium bentonite may absorb moisture and the DE may be good for the birds.
