Ametza Pellet Freshness Test Strips — 25 Pack (Mold & Moisture)
- Accesso immediato dopo l'acquisto

- Garanzia di soddisfazione 14 giorni
Stale or moldy pellets can trigger GI stasis in 24 hours. These 30-second test strips tell you whether any bag — yours or a competitor's — is still safe to feed.
How It Works
Drop one strip into a handful of pellets, wait 30 seconds, compare to the chart. Moisture above 13% turns the strip blue; mold-precursor mycotoxins (aflatoxin, ochratoxin) turn the strip pink. If either signal appears, discard the bag immediately.
