Hi all, I bought a packet of Blendrich Capekorn Flakes 3 weeks ago from Pet Lovers at Tampines Mall. I kept the whole packet of the thing with my rolled oats. Yesterday I found a flying insect flying around in the container (those big chinese new year kind). I killed it and threw it away. Today i found another. I took out the packet of capecorn and saw a cacoon at the side of the packet, in between the folds. I also found more cacoons in the inside grooves of the container. Got a white coloured WORM crawling around also!!!! Yucks! Now I got to throw everything away, including the container.
Heard that Blendrich dun have much quality control, so be careful.

Ghost> this worm is big and fat lor... whitish, greyish colour.
Do you think the insects are on the outside of the container or inside? Coz I found the cacoon outside. Feel like puking now. I can't even eat.

Hmm...i don't know....cos i find the same type of worms inside brand new packs of hamsters food before....& one of the brands is Browns'....if there is one,i'm sure there are many in there....& if they are in unopen packs of hamsters food....i can't imagine the owner who bought it home & open it at a later date.....i'm sure they'll multiply very fast.... ;D
