He demonstrates the solution by loading the corn onto an ATV and then feeding it directly to his chickens, highlighting that they will still consume the affected grains.

We've got a bit of a problem here. I've got bugs in my corn. This is feed. That is feed. And that is feed. We've got wheat, barley, soybeans, and corn. And all this is non-GMO, locally grown stuff that I was going to grind up and feed to my chickens. Well, that is powder from the corn. Okay. From the bugs that are in my corn. There's a little bit of powder right here, too. So, bugs have infiltrated my corn bags, and I got to try and get the ones out of here that have been bitten by bugs. Um, and I'm feeding my chickens whole corn, and they'll eat it. So, we're going to load up some bags of corn on the ATV here, front rack and back rack. This stuff won't keep. It just won't keep in your shop or your shed. There is a product I can put in here to keep bugs from getting into it, but it's poison. Now, I don't want to give my animals that because I'm eating the eggs and I might be feeding them to you. I'm going to say it's 50% lighter one that's been invaded by the bugs. You can see this dust coming off. That's dust from those bugs. See all that dust?
