Item is mislabeled and falsely advertised! I thought I was buying a big bag of cedar chips and it came in a small 1,000 cubic inch bag! I would never have bought the item if I knew the description was incorrect

Going to the store and lugging home bulky items isn't on the top of things I enjoy doing, so it seems I always forget to get the pine bedding and I'm empty handed when I need it. I have two rabbits and a parrot, so having this delivered at a great price is amazing. The quality is good, the packaging fair; it would be wonderful if there was a zip lock top, but oh well. I actually use a little of this on the bottom of my parrot's cage to deter moths at it works like a charm. The bunnies love it as well. They are in an outdoor enclosure so the scent doesn't build up. All in all, it does the job and I have it when I need it.

I love it, thank you much, please don't raise the price. I don't even want to write a good review for fear that the price will be absurdly sent up. but I use this stuff not for my pets (I don't have pets, they are dumb and die, they don't know how to feed themselves (californians* I am being sarcastic)) I use this for my clothes, my closet, weapon safes, ammo safes, food storage, etc. Makes everything smell delicious and keeps bugs away!!!

*anyone or anything human that has absurd and dumb feelings and thought I was saying the truth. I have no pets because I don't have time to give them, I will not let them just be alone all day while I work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh Addition For Cats and Hamster
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2012
Size: 1000 Cubic InchProduct Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase
I have had no problems with this cedar pet bedding for allergic reactions or anything else. I add it to Feline Pine cat litter in a ratio of about 1 part Cedar Chips to 4 parts Feline Pine and it helps with urine absorption and there are virtually no odors from urine whatsoever anymore in the box; we remove the cat waste once or twice daily with 2 adult cats. I use the Cedar Chips for the bedding in our hamster cage. In the portion of the cage where he sleeps/nests I also add cotton (from just pulling apart cotton balls) &/or wool (from spinning, if you are a knitter it is plain, natural roving). He loves to burrow into the soft wool or cotton and the cedar chips catch in it a little bit but mainly fall to the bottom of the nest hideout. I recommend this product, it smells wonderful and woodsy and lasts a very long time.

Size: 1000 Cubic InchProduct Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase
This is genuine cedar chips for many animal, barn, farm, and other uses. This material is hard to find, and this is real. It comes in a compressed block and has a surprising amount of volume, cubic feet, to the package. It is light weight, smells fresh, is absorbent, and has many applications from pet bedding to absorbent cover for plants, and reputedly for flea control.

My dog has allergies to fleas and all lawn things (leaves, etc). We've beaten the flea situation, but her itching continued. This product is perfect for us -- it's compressed, so know that when you open the bag, there's a lot! I changed out her bedding and used these chips with two cups of dried lavender, and she's now able to sleep through the night. And I'm making sachets for myself as well! Highly recommended for the price, quantity, and quality.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not so good
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2016
Size: 1000 Cubic InchProduct Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase
I bought this product because I needed it to line my dog beds (4) to help repel fleas, which I've done before. Many reviewers said it smelled wonderful and they also used it for potpourri, I'm thinking perfect! I was too hopeful, this cedar bordered on rancid smelling, only a very, very mild cedar smell to it. I went ahead and let it air out a bit and it was good enough to use the dog beds (I added some cedar oil to the chips which improved it somewhat) but I won't be buying this product again. Better to get it in a pet or farm supply store so you can smell before you buy.

I used this for my 3 rabbits and it never held the feces nor held the odor off. I fail to see how this is beneficial for rabbits. It may be ok for some reptiles but it did nothing good as rabbit bedding.

3.0 out of 5 stars MITE CONTROL
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2012
Size: 1000 Cubic InchProduct Packaging: Standard PackagingVerified Purchase
I had an infestation of mites in my hamster cage. I lost two litters of babies. I was at a lost as to what to do. Aside from the fact that mites can get out and bite humans. They can not reproduce on humans...at least not rodent mites but they can still make you itch. I was telling a friend of mine and she called her sister who is a vet. She told me (the vet)that the price to pay to treat a hamster was almost $60.00 per hamster. I have 3 dwarf hamsters. She gave me a tip that she learned while in med school.

Mix one half pine, one half cedar at least two inches deep for the animals to borrow. Remove all toys and wash in dishwasher or in hot soapy water...wood also. Leave them out of the cage so the hamsters will borrow, this is very important, it gets the oils on their skin. Fleas, ticks, and MITES can not stand cedar-( that is why most animal beds...cat, doges are filled with cedar). Leave it in the cage for one week (WITHOUT TOYS). Change out and repeat. You can not add toys once again. Repeat for 4 weeks.

You know what? IT WORKED. Now here is the kick ass part. I bought Carefresh and guess what it was filed with mites when I had my vet take a sample from the bag. I will stick with Pine and cedar. Little less on the cedar with the pine but just to be safe. Cedar has a bad rep. Hamsters are short term pets...they only live about 2 years tops...most times they die is because they have something else wrong with them. Very rarely will a hamster die from inhaling cedar fumes. If you have them in a cage the fumes will be released, in a tank they will be released. Use your own judgement. But I have had two healthy litter of pups, the hamsters no longer have open wounds from where they were scratching. I am not itching anymore and my place smells like the forest...it smells like Christmas all year long. BTW Cedar keeps Mosquitoes out of the house. So I'll let you make thew choice. But I wanted to share in case you have a mite problem. I will not buy Carefresh again the is for sure.
