Pet food company Lafeber has issued a voluntary bird food recall. Some grains stored in hot humid conditions can develop hot spots, randomly increasing their moisture, said the company, and the increased moisture level can lead to problems with the food over time, such as bacterial or fungal growth.
Though no problems have been reported, the company is recommending that those who have bird food with certain lot numbers, stop feeding it to their pets. Lafeber will be replacing the recalled food and contacting customers about how to make arrangements for replacing and returning the products.
