Best Answer

Skin beetles can be found in some dry cat foods (perhaps wet as well). I found out the hard way when an unnoticed pile of cat vomit under a piece of furniture propagated larvae which turned into a full-on infestation (because they had time to grow).

Disgusting but true.

How do you kill centipede type bugs in dry cat food?

You can try freezing the food for 24 hours usually this will kill the bugs. Most bugs can go dormant in cold climates and then be back to normal when the temperature is back to room temperature though so it is not guaranteed that freezing will kill the pests. To prevent further infestations in your pets dinner, try keeping the food in an air tight container so the bugs can't get in.
