Fresh pine and moss in included in the kit. As it is a natural product, on the very rare occasion, it may contain the odd bug/beetle. All of this is natural and should be expected with a natural product. Do not leave the box indoors near a radiator of other heat source as it will dry out the fresh products contained within the kit. If the wreath is not going to be made for a few days once the kit is purchased, please leave it in a cool room or outhouse/shed to ensure longevity of the products.
