Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Wood used to pack or support food may carry tiny pests. The wood must show a special mark to prove it was treated safely.

What's happening? Wood from Portugal arrived in Spain without the required safety mark. This could let pests spread.

Does this affect me? If you bought food packed with wood, check the wood for the mark. Most people won’t see this wood.

What should I do? If you’re unsure, ask your local food shop or a food safety expert for advice.
