QUESTION
Is anything added to the wood during processing? Have pesticides been applied? Is it safe to eat food that comes into contact with it? And is it safe to use around animals or for their bedding such as birds, chickens, water foul, cats, dogs, etc? Thank you.
ANSWER
The manufacturer was able to provide me with the following information: This wood excelsior is made of 100% poplar fibers. There is no color added and the wood is kiln dried. All the wood is within 40 miles of our plant in Racine, Quebec, Canada. The species is Trembling Aspen or Poplar. Thank you.

QUESTION
I am packing a crate with the Christmas Story Leg Lamp. Will 10 pounds be enough?
ANSWER
Hello, it would depend on how large your crate is and how large the lamp is. Since this shredded wood is light, 10 pounds will be more than expected. This is designed to keep items in place during shipment. There is one previous customer review that said they used this for a window display. However, you may also want to contact the manufacturer directly at 1-800-724-7300 (8am - 5pm EST) to see if they have a more specific idea about this. Thank you!

Hello, it would depend on how many pounds your boxes can hold. Each order of this product comes with 10 pounds of shredded wood. Shredded wood is lightweight, so 10 pounds should be able to fit a lot of boxes. Thank you!
