Dry pet food is shipped into Tortola(BVI) by freighter, and there can be lengthy delays. My wife follows the news even when she's not there, and a guy bought Pro-Plan, to find it was loaded with moth larvae. He took it back, and they opened the next bag while still in the store. It, too was loaded. All of it was contaminated.
My wife is a baker, and Kitchen moths are a problem if you have any flour products. It may be clean but bringing in one contaminated bag, will be disaster to any flour products not stored in the freezer (we have one freezer strictly for baking supplies) The moths can bore through the bags and you'll never find their ingress holes. We have had to throw out all pasta products more once.
