Versatility of Vittles Vault Containers
There are many reasons that Vittles Vault containers are considered "best in class" in pet food storage containers. They come in a range of sizes and styles that make them handy for different types of pets. They are waterproof and pest-proof, so you can store them either indoors or outdoors. They also keep out pests such as insects commonly found in some types of pet food.
More Reasons to Buy Vittles Vault Containers
You want nothing but the best for your pet, including the best-quality pet food. You probably pay a lot to ensure your pet enjoys optimal nutrition to keep them healthy and happy. But where and how you store their food is just as important. It isn’t just for your indoor pets like cats and dogs but also for outdoor animals like rabbits, horses, and birds.
Let's break down the features of Vittles Vault containers so you can understand how important storage containers are to your pet’s health.
Exceptional Moisture Resistance
Moisture resistance is a big deal for your pets and for stock animals. Some so-called experts claim that consuming mold in food has no real impact on animals. But the recall on pet food in January of 2021 comes after 70 dogs died from mold exposure and another 80 dogs became sickened. Although this happened because the food was already tainted with aflatoxins, high temperatures and relatively high humidity favor the growth of the deadly mold, and it can happen in the field or in storage.
It isn’t just kibble that you need to keep dry. Sweet feed that you give to horses, cows, chickens, goats, and sheep is also at risk. Some animals are at risk of breathing problems from mold, while others suffer from production losses. Mold affects different species in various ways, some more severely than others. It can contain toxins that cause vomiting, fever, tremors, seizures, and death. Any risk makes it worthwhile to buy the right container for all of your animals’ feed.
The Right Size for Any Job
Many brands of pet food are now available in resealable bags. The idea is to keep the food fresh and keep out pests and moisture until you feed it. The problem is that these bags simply don’t work. Also, they aren’t always offered in the largest size bags, which you are likely to keep in storage longer.
The range of sizes makes Vittles Vault containers ideal for all types of food and storage capacities. Choose a size that is slightly larger than the bag size that you usually purchase. This gives you room to add a new bag to the remainder of the last container. You never get stuck with having to leave part of the food in the original bag where it isn’t tightly secured.
We also recommend purchasing a slightly larger Vittles Vault container than the food bag size you plan to fit it in. Rotation is extremely important, doing this will allow you to add a new bag to the remainder of the product with ease.
If you have more than one pet in your house, purchase the perfect container for each. It’s easy to access the right food when you need it, and it makes it easy to choose the right size for each kind of food.
If you have limited space, consider the Vittles Vault stackable food storage containers. Keep your feed separate and secure within a small area of your home.
Pest Resistance
Pests such as insects don’t usually cause any harm to your pet’s food or your pet. It’s the thought of having insects in their food and in your home that is so repulsive. Vittles Vault keeps pests out so your pet’s food stays pest-free.
BPA-Free Food-Grade Plastic
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical component found in some types of plastics. People are mostly concerned about BPAs because of their wide use. Some studies have also shown that people retain a high level of BPAs in their urine. Using human-grade BPA-free plastic containers for pet food reduces the chance that animals will absorb these chemicals when they ingest their food. Vittles Vault’s construction means these containers are safe for human food storage too!
Also Ideal for Human Food Storage
Vittles Vault containers have all the features that make them ideal for long-term human food storage. There are lots of reasons that you might want to stock up. Sometimes buying in bulk helps you save a great deal over multiple smaller purchases. These containers are airtight. They keep out moisture that causes mold and pests that can ruin your investment. They also help keep out light that encourages the growth of bacteria.
Survivalists will love Vittles Vault containers for many of the foods they commonly store. They can hold large quantities of dry beans and lentils, jerky, rice, flour, nuts, and seeds. Unlike plastic pails or cardboard containers, Vittles Vault containers have a patented airtight seal that keeps freshness locked in and odors out. As long as you store the containers in a dry area where the temperature is fairly consistent, your food will last and last.
