       Removing dust,powder from pellet type feeds

       I'm sure that others have had the powder with pellets, to
       contend with, it being difficult to salvage, or remove from
       pellets. So here is what hit me today ! If you have a cricket
       container, like 8" round, here we call box, although it is round
       1/16 mesh hardware cloth, (wire), dump the pellets dust and all
       in it, turn it around  a few times, dust falls through the wire,
       pellets remain nice and clean. Put powder in a worm bed, throw
       it in the pond, mix it in with can dog cat food, or what
       ever-but  you will have clean pellets! Dump loose feed from
       feed trays into the container and it will look new !! chesley

       First of all when it comes to "pellet dust" their is nothing
       wrong with it. It's all "pure" pellets remains...   It's not
       like it is something that has contaminates in it..
       so "why" throw it away.  In actuality you are just throwing away
       your $$$... Most important thing in handling the bags is be
       "gentle" and don't just toss them around. This helps eliminate
       the breaking down or crushing of the pellets..
       A simple way that helps to avoid the "pellet dust" is, try and
       purchase the "harder" type pellets.  Just do a little more
       research.
