Just got a whole skid of this stuff come into my work and I bought a couple bags, what do you guys think? Doesn't say anything on the bag about it being a blend. I tried calling the number on the bag but it didn't work...think it's safe?

Looks like it should be fine to use. It's recommended for children's play areas so should be safe with herps.

I used the blended stuff for years, no short term issues ever came up so even if it turns out to be blended I wouldn't worry to much...

It looks fine but just be cautious as I know you are.

I use the Timberline blend "black an yellow bag" from Walmart it works fine for me it can be a little chunky but works well and its inexpensive
