FAQs
Is this scoop safe for all types of animal feed?
Yes, the scoop is made from food-grade, non-toxic plastic, making it 100% safe for use with all animal feeds, supplements, and treats.
Can I use this scoop for both dry and wet feed?
Yes, the food-grade plastic is suitable for both dry and wet feed mixtures. Its stain and odor resistance helps maintain hygiene regardless of feed type.
What are the dimensions of the scoop?
The scoop measures approximately 8 cm in height, 36 cm in length, and has a diameter of 21 cm.
How do I clean the Red Gorilla Scoop?
Clean the scoop with warm, soapy water after each use. Allow it to air dry completely before storing.
Does the color of the scoop fade?
The scoop is designed to be durable and weather-resistant. While vibrant, prolonged and intense exposure to direct sunlight over extended periods may cause some gradual fading, as with most colored plastics.
Can the scoop be used for purposes other than animal feed?
While designed for animal feed and supplements, its durable, food-grade construction means it could potentially be used for other household scooping tasks, provided they do not involve harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the plastic.
What is the benefit of the hook-over arm?
The hook-over arm allows you to conveniently hang the scoop on the side of buckets or feed bins, keeping it easily accessible and preventing it from getting lost or dirty on the ground.
Troubleshooting
Scoop has absorbed odors or stains.
Soak the scoop in a mild solution of water and white vinegar for a few hours, then wash thoroughly with soap and water. Ensure it is dried completely afterwards.
Handle feels slippery.
Ensure the handle is dry before use. If the material itself has become worn, clean it thoroughly as per care instructions. The material is designed for grip even when damp.
Scoop appears to be degraded by weather.
While weather-resistant, prolonged extreme exposure (e.g., constant direct sunlight for years) can eventually affect plastic. Inspect for brittleness or cracking. If significant degradation is observed, consider replacement.
