I personally haven't had a problem with bugs in Swheat Scoop. I have had them in some alfalfa reptile bedding, though. So what I do now, with any organic product like this, is open the bag outdoors, well away from any entrance to the house. If there are any bugs, they should be pretty obvious

I have been ordering this for @ least 6 months & I have not had a problem at all. I never let it sit around, I use a bag in about 3 weeks

no recent problems! I had a problem with weevils about 2 years ago, in 2 boxes I had stocked up on and left unopened weeks or even months (bought in unknown grocery store because I had purchased in different stores). NO PROBLEMS SINCE THEN WITH CONTINUED USE.

I've never experienced bugs in my popcorn kernels. I've been turning to this brand for about a year now. I have a very very sensitive stomach so if there was something was something I didn't see I would have had some sort of reaction, but I never have. I don't know if maybe there are some "bad" bags? I never got one though. If you find this problem with your bags I'd report it.

You need to remove the hose first. Then you will be able to open the compartment that hold the bag.

I haven't and don't think I ever will. It's great. Lid pops up easily when you step on the step. It keeps bugs out. It holds more than you would think. Since it seals tightly you probably want to change the bag (toss out the full bag) instead of keep trying to push stuff in if you're using it like I am for throwing away food stuffs like cat food cans, tomato sauce used cans, etc. so you don't get those fruit flys or white wiggly little worms you can get if you don't change out the bag regularly. I would highly recommend it!

Looks like everyone has answered. If all still fails, you might contact the Bag company, might be a bad batch of bags?

Idk. I've been having trouble with mine. The bags aren't holding a seal. They must have holes and I only used them once.

I am so glad you asked! When the bag I purchased arrived, instead of that label there was a hole in the bag which was taped over with clear packing tape, and I could not figure out why they would ship a bag like that... Maybe they were expired because some of the berries were very dried up and I have felt bad for months now because I requested to return them. Now I feel better, if they expired in 2012 then that would explain why I didn't like them. Maybe they have a new shipment? It is a good price... The seller was understanding about the return request.

My quess is that you didn't have the zipper part totally closed. Be sure to use the little white zipper aid to held close the bag and redo it. If it still leaks,you might have a small hole in your bag.

Moisten your forefinger and thumb. This creates a resistive surface between the two. Put the end of the bag between the finger and thumb and rub the finger and thumb together. This should start the bag to open on the end. If not, you are on the wrong end and then turn the bag to the other end and try it again. Sounds like a lot of work but it's not. Be patient, it does work. Good luck.

I've never checked since my husband is the primary user. He has never been a problem. Nevertheless, with summer's approach, I bought a second bag after we enjoyed the first one so much so it hasn't been an issue here with the two of us.

So far, I've experienced no problems with the bags; therefore, I'm unable to offer any suggestions. Sorry you're having problems.

It is BROKEN when this noise is made, it is not breaking. We've had 2 now, with the same result! The teeth aren't catching in the hinge that is SUPPOSED to twist the bag shut, AND KEEP THE SMELL IN....WELL, IT'S BROKE!

Don't remember having any issues opening it. Maybe you have a defective package.
