just a thought.... could you pour the container with flies out, holding it high up and as it falls to the next container have a fan blowing across the stream of falling food so the dust and flies get blown away from the it... do that a few times and there shouldn't be many flies.

what spills have the birds, dog or cats clean up

Dog food with flies, is probably better for your dog than people food.

That's a cool idea, I don't know if my fan is strong enough...

I know the food is probably fine but it is just gross to me. I am going to slowly feed it to the chickens and take some to the park to feed the fish and ducks.

And georgec, I am not feeding people food like pizza or aything, I am feeding meat and veggies and grains! Lots of people do that!

dog food

MANY yrs ago my father would make his coon dogs food from corn meal...he'd cook it and add stuff. I was too small to remember but if we have stale corn chips. I soak them in water and add treats...our dog loves this.
