Thought I was maybe storing it wrong, but started googling and seems there are a lot of comments specific to pro plan.
I’ve been noticing for several months now and noticed again last night with a 1 week old bag. Storing in a tin container in my garage

No…. I keep mine in one of those screw top bins in the laundry room.

I've never seen bugs in the stuff I've bought.

Whoever u bought it from storing too long or poorly

I generally buy from petco or petsmart. 37.5lb bag and go through that in about a month.

Look for little white specks
Eta: I just had a few more pieces in his bowl tonight that looked suspect with white specks on it. This is purina pro plan complete essentials- orange bag with the golden on it

Can you post a picture?
I’ve used a few different mixes of pro plan over the years but I’ve never had an issue with bugs.
Posted on 9/22/24 at 9:39 pm to PapaPogey
No, none in mine.
Posted on 9/23/24 at 6:34 am to PapaPogey
Never.

I’ve seen meal moths in dog food before. It was related to the store and not the brand.
Posted on 9/23/24 at 7:02 am to PapaPogey
Yes. My vet recommended Purina Pro Plan because it tested well in the long term heart disease study.
But I stopped buying it because of the freaking moths that would start coming out of the bag after about a month. I'm sure I could just switch to a smaller size bag. But I'm not having that problem with Science Diet

I haven’t seen any bugs. But will certainly keep an eye on it.
Thanks for the heads up.

If you are buying it from a store, check the racks for moth activity. Supply chain issues likely. The moths will wreck everything in your pantry.
I buy pro plan on chewy and the food gets put l in a plastic screw top tub for over a month with no issues. I have a month supply on hand at all times.

What did Purina say?
Posted on 9/24/24 at 7:23 pm to Theduckhunter
I haven’t thought to ask. I’m thinking it’s how I’m storing it in my garage,
