its all about how its stored!

whats difference with plastic bags and keeping corn in a plastic dustbin? Nothing, they can both sweat the same!

[Guest shippy]

corn put into plastic bags must be snuff dry or you will get mould and a heap of probs with your birds

all my pigeon food is in paper bags then i put paper bag in plastic bins. any seed in plastic bag or bin will sweat

If corn is so bad in plastic bags why do they sell it in them?   Leave the bag to breath and it should be fine, no substitute for Hessian Cloth sacks though.

Bucktons changed over to plastic bags a couple of years back. Was sold in double-walled paper bags before that.

 

Prefer to empty the bags into a plastic bin with lock-down lid.
